Fruits of Change were reaped as women shared their decisions for forgiveness; restoring relationships in friendships, marriages and families. Networkers are discipling other women in their countries, and our training materials were their yearly resource. Many women restored their true value and reconciled with themselves. Others decided to dedicate more time to read and study the Word of God and prioritize their relationship with God. Some shared that they will change their attitude regarding the challenges they face, and will use the tools and skills they have learned.
