What is WOGA?

Women of Global Action (WOGA) is a network of Christian women active in over 100 countries throughout Africa, Asia, Latin and North America, Europe and the Middle East. We are committed to bringing about positive change in the many global justice issues which threaten women. We hope to unite our sisters around the world as a family of women who encourage one another to pursue the wonderful purposes God has for us.

WOGA: LA is the first US chapter of Women of Global Action. We began in January of 2007 and we now have 50 members who serve in a variety of ministries both locally and globally. Two of our primary goals are raising awareness and building compassion about such urgent issues as human trafficking, forced early marriage, FGM and the feminization of AIDS. We hold several forums a year with this in mind and we'd love to see you at an event! Check out our "upcoming events" section to see what's coming up next.

Eight WOGA: LA Members Make it to Ethiopia!

WOGA: LA Ethiopia Team

Thank you to the friends and family who helped us get to Ethiopia! We spent an amazing 10 days in Addis with WOGA's Ethiopian partner, Beza International. If you missed our Coffee Ceremony at Ecclesia last week, come to Silverlake Community Church on Sunday, 11/9 at 12 noon to hear about the trip.

We felt like we were in the center of a whirlwind of the Holy Spirit's activity. See our trip blog for stories: www.wogaethiopia2008.blogspot.com
