What Do I Get?
membership benefits
When you join Girlfriends Unlimited, you have access
to everything necessary to design and direct a successful
women's ministry program. You'll enjoy:
Starter kit which includes the Girlfriends
Unlimited Guide, training DVD, graphics CD, and other various
extras. The Girlfriends Unlimited Guide contains a simple plan for
designing women's ministry to be an intentional place where women
can connect and make friends. We provide the foundation for doing
this through a philosophy we call the 4 B's. The Guide gives
information about what the 4B's are, and the ways in which to carry
out the 4 B's in your ministry. The 4 B's are Befriend, Belong,
Believe, Become.
Member's only web site - this is a password
protected area where you can find additional tools for your
ministry such as event guides, evaluation tools, private forum
& chat room, member only Boutique, web tool box, and more.
Bi-monthly Planner - this is a resource that is
mailed to the Girlfriends Unlimited leader. It contains an
idea/event for each of the "4 B's" of the Girlfriends Unlimited
philosophy. These are designed to help you carry out the 4B's in
your ministry throughout the entire year.
- Befriend is an event that you can do on either
a large or small scale. We provide the idea for the theme, and some
ideas for carrying that theme through the event.
- Belong is for what we call G! Groups. The
planner gives G! Groups something you can do together. There will
be activities that draw women together, and can even include
service to your community (done as a group). G! Groups are special
interest groups. These groups give women a group of friends with
shared interests-ultimately giving them a feeling of
belonging.
- Believe is for bringing women into a
relationship with God. We provide a simple devotion that can be
done with G! Groups, with the leadership team, or at your events.
It is a devotion that is done WITH others.
- Become is for becoming all that God intended
you to be. With Girlfriends Unlimited Become is about leadership.
We provide simple tools/ideas to support women in leadership
(specifically leadership in your ministry). These can be simple
ideas for refreshing the team, building them up, team building, or
tools to help you discover more about who you are as a leader.
20% discount on other Group for Women resources
- as a member of Girlfriends Unlimited, you get a 20% discount on
other resources that Group creates such as Bible studies, retreats,
and more. We will soon be expanding this discount to include all
resources for Adult Small Groups.
Training - we provide training opportunities
through telephone conference calls. Every member can attend the
"Getting Started" training for free. Whether you are a new or old
member, you can sign up for this training as often as you like. We
also offer over 10 other trainings on a variety of topics that
we've found many members are wondering about. These are offered for
the low price of just $20 per training, and are also over the
phone.
Networking - we provide many opportunities for
Girlfriends Unlimited leaders to network with other Girlfriends
Unlimited leaders from around the world. Opportunities include our
own personal network of Girlfriends Unlimited "coaches" (we call
them GALS), forum, chat room, Facebook, and Twitter. Plus, we are
holding our first ever large event/conference in September to
provide more opportunities for face-to-face networking. Some GALS
also like to get women together from time-to-time to network
regionally.
