About Aglow - Introduction
Aglow International is a transdenominational organization of Christian women and men with more than 4,000 local groups in 171 nations of the world. It is one of the largest international women's organizations with over 1,100 local groups in the U.S. alone. Aglow reaches an estimated 200,000 women each month through local groups -- the heart of the organization.
Small group studies, care (support) groups, retreats, and annual conferences make up the Aglow year. Two foundational pillars of the organization, prayer, and outreach with the Good News, are supported with tangible responses to need: Gifts of clothing, food, housecleaning, and babysitting. Aglow women reach out to their communities in many directions: To women in prison, in senior homes, inner city neighborhoods, and mental institutions; to single moms, as well as to the average woman next door who may need a cup of tea and a good chat with a friend.
Aglow Meetings and Local Bible Studies
Aglow is, by nature, dynamic around the world! Meetings vary from nation to nation in order to meet the cultural and geographic needs of women in locations as diverse as women themselves! Large groups gather to worship, and hear a speaker; smaller groups (from 3-10 women) meet, forming prayer groups, Bible studies, or care groups. Women with a heart for outreach form groups to help meet community needs to visit nursing homes, orphanages, tutoring at schools, participating in food programs.
Up close and personal: that’s a good way to describe Aglow Bible studies. A small group of women meet together regularly to study the Bible and share issues and questions that touch a woman’s heart. Bible studies are an especially good place for new Christians to come together with other Christian women to explore God’s Word and put the timeless truths found there into action in their own personal lives.
Through fellowship, prayer, and loving support, women come to know who God created them to be, and by walking in the principles of that new identity, they are able to establish transparent, godly friendships that will last a lifetime. As one woman said, “Being part of an Aglow Bible study gave me the confidence to step into who God wants me to be as a woman.”
