e) Wives of overseas workers
f) Women whose husbands are incapacitated or at the moment or not ready yet to join any religious affiliations

Handmaids of the Lord’s program teaches that:

 

• The woman is a beautiful creation of God chosen for greatness and designed for excellence.

• While loneliness, rejection and fear in their lives are real, they have a God who loves them and cares for them through the community like Handmaids of the Lord.

• To fully experience a life of joy and fulfillment, they need to heal, forgive and decide to be happy and productive.

• By serving other women whose circumstances are similar to theirs, they thank God and gain empowerment.

• Our model is Mama Mary, as we are called CFC HANDMAIDS OF THE LORD.
