November 2023 - Hope Challenge
In a world yearning for hope, where the echoes of despair often drown out the whispers of faith, you have the power to make an impact. Welcome to the TWR Women of Hope Challenge—a chance to unite your passion with ours in bringing hope to women around the world and across generations.
Why It Matters
Countless women find themselves entangled in the threads of hopelessness, feeling unseen by their communities, families and even God. But we know that women are loved and cherished by God, and Jesus came to set them free.
The Hope Challenge isn't just an initiative; it's a lifeline. It’s your opportunity to shatter the chains of despair for vulnerable women who lack access to the gospel and fundamental resources for their well-being.
That’s right, your compassion can become the catalyst for change.
With the Hope Challenge, we are introducing eight featured projects of women who are desperately longing for something more. In some of these places, we already have teams on the ground, and in others, we don't yet have a presence. But, with your help, we are answering God's call to bring hope and healing in Jesus' name.

How You Can Make an Impact
Pray
We believe prayer is the most important action we can take. Through prayer and intercession, we have the divine power to demolish strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4-6). Join us in interceding for vulnerable groups of women on a daily basis. Our teams on the ground send in prayer requests from their local communities, and we feature these requests in our prayer calendar. You can also join us on the first Thursday of every month for our Global Prayer Gathering, where we join with our sisters around the world and pray for the needs of women globally.
Give
The Lord may place a burden on your heart to tangibly contribute to the practical and spiritual needs of hurting women. Your gift goes toward supporting our teams around the world and their ability to print prayer calendars, produce and translate scripts and broadcast life-changing radio programs. We would not be where we are today if it weren't for the faithful stewardship of our supporters and leadership, and we promise to continue being faithful stewards of what God has entrusted us with. We will provide regular updates on how your gift is making an impact so you, too, can be encouraged. Please give as the Lord leads you, and together, let's create lasting ripples of change.
We are so grateful for your shared passion for reaching women with the profound hope of the gospel. Your support matters, and together, we can bring the true, lasting hope women desperately need. Thank you for being an integral part of the TWR Women of Hope family.
Women in rural areas often have limited knowledge about basic healthcare and sanitation. By teaching women about these concepts through our radio programs, and meeting their physical needs, our teams are also able to address their spiritual needs by introducing them to the gospel.
