Your weekly roundup :: September 14 – 18

As you head into your weekend, here are a few articles from the past week we thought you might enjoy.


4word is celebrating a “Triple Crown” week of blessings!

2020 has been an eventful year (to put it kindly) for all of us, and at 4word, we are forever grateful for what God is doing through us and through the support of our 4word family. The biggest blessing of this week came in the form of our Giving Week, during which we not only met our goal of $60,000 but surpassed it with a total of $65,560! We can’t say “thank you” enough to everyone who took a step of faith and gave to 4word’s mission, even during a global pandemic. Our C-Level Forum event completely sold out, with 45 amazing C-Level women getting ready to come together at the end of this month to grow and support each other. We also began translating our weekly blogs into Chinese, thanks to the incredible support of one of our Advisory Board members.

Again, we are just in awe of how God continues to work in and for us, and we thank every one of you for the part you have played to encourage and support us!
