Quick Start Checklist

Pray! Please don't make a move without God's leadership.

Obtain approval from your husband, your pastor, church staff, office manager, or whoever will be hosting the MotherWise group. Be prepared to present the materials for review.

We encourage you to find a small team of praying friends to pray with you about all aspects of beginning a MotherWise group.

Contact MotherWise by visiting www.motherwise.org or by calling 1-888-272-6972 for information about the ministry and/or to purchase materials for review. Previews of workbook lessons and tables of contents of each study are available by clicking here.
