Young Women's Christian Council The Young Women's Christian Council (YWCC) is a group of women from the age of nineteen to an indefinite age. This group is too old for the Purity Class and too young for the Mother's Board. The age is indefinite because of the great interest held by the young women at an age when they should be leaving the YWCC. The church thought it best for them to remain in the YWCC than allow them to leave because of age and possibly lose them entirely. The YWCC woman is at the peak of her strength. She has possibly overcome the stupidity of adolescence and is tempted many times to lean on her own strength. She faces her college years, years of marriage and motherhood and will very soon come to the summit of leadership. The arms of the church reach out to this age because she needs the church and the church needs her. This age of passion, success and many times depression necessitates a firm concentration of God's will and His way. The prime purpose of the YWCC is to gather together these young women and channel their minds into productive motives of Christian endeavor. This is the training station for every faucet of women's work. Here they are trained to be homemakers, lovers of their husbands, ministers' wives, bishops' wives, auxiliary leaders, prayer warriors and lovers of their God. Faith in and eternal Power is a requisite, for except our young women are led to God, they will be most miserable. There is no limit to the contribution of an organized YWCC. They are an asset to any local church, the pastor, the district, the state and national work. One of the strongest supporters of the state is the YWCC.  There are countless hours in useless talk and prolonging the worship service. The YWCC group is young enough to accept the "new know how" and old enough to know why "time" is a precious gem. This group is expected to train in all areas leadership and organizational structure. They are expected to learn what it means to live consistent Christian lives. This group was organized under the supervision of Mother Lillian B. Coffey, our deceased general supervisor, and she had in mind the pastor's wife who is many times forgotten in the congregation. Please remember her with appreciation gifts and special days. The organization of the YWCC shall be: president, vice president, recording secretary, corresponding secretary, chaplain, treasurer, teachers, councilors, etc. Colors - Purple with a white orchid Return to Church Services Return to Women's Department
