Newsletter for leaders
Interchange is the newsletter of Women of the ELCA, which is published monthly and mailed to congregations, cluster and conference, and synodical women's organization leadership. Interchange is available by subscription ($6.00 per year) and on-line. Intercambio, the Spanish translation, is provided to Spanish-speaking women's leadership. Enter your subscription to Interchange or Intercambio at 800-328-4648.

Online discussions
The discussion boards are a place to share ideas, ask questions, exchange experiences, and find a community of women who are striving to carry out the Women of the ELCA purpose locally and globally. Take part in discussions on Women of the ELCA, mission areas, Bible study, care for creation, and more.

Ways to organize
Six models for carrying out the mission and purpose of Women of the ELCA are available on this site. Use as it, adapt, or create a model of your own that best meets the needs of your unit and its participants.
