During the early seventies the first woman was elected to the Salem Church Council.

Since then women are:

• Ordained as pastors
  
• Officers of the Congregation, including President
  
• Stewards of the Church Council
  
• Lectors and communion assistants
  
• Church ushers and money counters
  
• ETC.ETC.ETC.
  

Most important of all women support each other in warm friendships and Christian fellowship as they try to live out God’s will as a servant church.

We are currently doing:

• Salem Women/Friends Events – Inspirational brunches or luncheons
  
• Monthly inspirational gatherings
  
• "Circles" for Bible study, fellowship, friendship, support, nurturing
  
• Projects – Quilts, sewing, health, and school kits for those in need
  
• Fund Raisers – Rummage Sales, Bake Sales, Special offerings, restaurant events
  
• Benevolences – Support 3 children each month and 15 causes each year
  
• Women’s Synod and Church wide events - Conventions, retreats, gatherings
  

God made each of us unique with unique gifts. We are evolving into the 21st century and are open to suggestions and comments.

We want to be more:

• Flexible
  
• Responsive
  
• Inclusive
  

Come walk with us! We encourage your comments and suggestions.
