This ministry is needed in our communities to help minister to the hearts and spiritual growth of widows and to encourage them to find home in God through His Word and other believers. This is an ongoing mission to care and to love these ladies on their journey into and through widowhood. |
|
| Elaine Cook, Founder and President of Widow2Widow®, Inc. has been led to facilitate and to help other churches and organizations to adopt this ministry as we are commanded in James 1:27 – “to care for the orphans and the widows.” |
| We encourage you to consider this ministry; to reach out and fellowship with those on the journey of widowhood. A ministry that you will find is a blessed gift from God and is vital to our churches and/or communities. |
| In addition to Widow2Widow® which is open to all ages, we have a new ministry called Young Widow2Widow® that is designed specifically for young widows on this journey and possibly have minor children still at home. The needs of young widows varies greatly because they have been robbed of their future in growing old with their husband and most likely left a single Mom in the process. |
| Elaine welcomes the opportunity to visit with you to help you analyze the needs within your church or community in how you hold to the command of James 1:27. Elaine has experienced widowhood as a young widow and understands their needs. Her desires are to see this ministry extend to all areas of our nation and worldwide. The only way this can happen is through the help of other believers who are open to God’s calling on their lives. |
| We pray that you will consider this ministry and ask for God’s guidance in leading this ministry to your area. We also pray that you will look into the faces and hearts of your church and community and see that the needs of widows do exist. |
| This ministry is solely dependent upon honorariums for speaking engagements and individual contributions for the ministry. Because of it’s 501(c)3 Nonprofit status, any cash gift (excluding expense reimbursement and honorariums) is a tax-deductible contribution per the IRS guidelines. |
| Elaine Cook is not only Founder and President of Widow2Widow®, but she is an inspirational speaker to give the ladies hope and encouragement in knowing they are not alone on their journey and to share with other women and young couples. Elaine wishes to help any church to minister to the needs of widows through adopting this ministry but also to help plan and provide a conference or retreat for these special ladies. |
