WELCOME BACK!

We hope you all had a fabulous Christmas Season celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior with family and friends. The new year is upon us...and almost an entire month of it gone already! (I know, I know, don't push it, right?) Well, whether you are happily into the new year or have entered it with burdens or a reluctant spirit, we hope those in SWIFT will be able to encourage one another yet again as we begin to reconnect with each other or connect for the first time.

SWIFT is made up of a very diverse group of women. Some are seminary wives, some of seminary students, some are both. Some live in Winona Lake and many others live in lots of other places like Ft. Wayne, Indianappolis, or far away places like Colorado or even France! Wherever you are as a woman involved by marriage or directly taking classes, we want you to know we care about you and want to be able to serve you in whatever way you need. Please feel free to send prayer requests at any time to our email (seminarywives@grace.edu) and to email with any questions, concerns, or just to know what local doctors we might recommend! We are here to serve you!

We are also here to grow alongside you and to help train you for the ministries that may lay ahead. Many of us are currently in ministry or have been in the past, and it is from this experience that we seek to find Godly men and women to come and teach us more about the Lord and about ministry issues. This semester we hope to cover many relavent topics that will assist you now as well as in the future. We hope you will be able to join us along this journey in person, but should distance prevail, we hope you will check in with us from time to time and let us know what God is doing in YOUR life and ministry. We'd love to learn from the many experiences God has brought you through so please drop us a line and let us get to know you more.

Looking forward to another great semester, Ladies!
