Endow
Educating on the Nature and Didnity Of Women
Founded in 2003, ENDOW (Educating on the Nature and Dignity of Women) is a Catholic, non-profit organization that is dedicated to offering classes and developing study materials based on the teachings of the Catholic Church for women to use in small study groups. The ENDOW program is designed for today's "women in the pew', women who are neither theologians nor philosophers, but are faithful wives, mothers and career women.The ENDOW program follows a specific methodology, which is very effective in helping women learn both about their inherent God-given dignity as women and about the truths found in the Catholic faith. It is recommended that each study group start with ENDOW's Letter to Women and Mulieris Dignitatem (On the Dignity and Vocation of Women) study guides. Like all ENDOW study guides, these two study guides are each eight chapters long, and normally a group will study both of them over the course of a year. Upon completion of both of these, ENDOW offers a "menu of more" which includes a wide selection of topics designed to help women further understand their own dignity and vocation and the depth and beauty found in the Catholic Church.
To accommodate a woman's busy schedule, there is no homework involved in the ENDOW program. All of the material is read aloud and discussed when the group meets. At the end of every chapter of the study guides, there is a list of thought-provoking questions which help stimulate conversation and additional learning among the group members.
