Women
have played a vital role both in the old and new testaments. Their
place in society and giving them the due importance is not
questionable. When in the society their contribution to the growth
and development has been recognized it is more important for the
Christian Community to accord the place, which they rightly
deserve.
The
Diocese of Jabalpur in keeping with the concept of women’s place
in the community has not lagged behind and the WFCS of the diocese
has a good past record. Only for a few years there seemed to be
some slackness but when the new Bishop of the diocese, the Rt.
Rev. Dr. P. C. Singh took over as the Bishop his wife Mrs. Nora
Singh was elected as President of the WFCS and soon after taking
over the reigns Mrs. Nora Singh infused a new spirit into the WFCS.
The different departments like the Christian outreach programme,
the Christian Family programme, Social Education, Christian
Literature, Least Coin programme, World Prayer Day etc. were
reorganized and have started their work in right earnest.
