Welcome to Sisterhood of Servants, a volunteer service ministry dedicated to encouraging women to utilize their unique gifts and abilities to positively influence the lives of others. This volunteer service organization also seeks to celebrate the achievements attained by women through their selfless acts of service and is composed of an organized group of ladies who come together on the basis of shared concerns, experiences and objectives with the principle desire to give aid or service to others. Deliberate efforts will be made to chronicle the impact and influence this kind of volunteer service organization has in the community. Volunteer service ministries, like Sisterhood of Servants are useful tools for  bringing women together to assess the needs within a local community and implement strategies to meet those needs.  When women come to together with singleness of purpose, the volunteer service they provide to those in their circles of influence has the potential to make a lasting impact for generations to come.
 

Consider the following analogy between this  type of 
volunteer service ministry and the S.O.S symbol for help. Since their adoption in 1905, the letters S.O.S have been the commonly used description for the International Morse Code distress signal. Once this combination of symbols (. . . - - - . . .) was implemented, ship captains could instruct onboard radio operators to transmit this simple signal if the ship was in trouble, and help would be forthcoming. In modern times, people who are stranded use these same letters to indicate their urgent need for assistance. As volunteer service is practiced today, there will be many times a woman feels as if she needs to display an S.O.S signal to other ladies in her circle of influence. It is easy to get overwhelmed trying to juggle all the important elements of life that require time and energy: family, career, finances, volunteer service, etc.

How refreshing it would be to know that there is group of ladies who will help share in these responsibilities should one feel the need to wave a symbolic distress signal flag with a cry of “help, I’m stranded and overwhelmed.” The request could also be “Hey, I’ve got a great idea. Will you help me implement this?” Hence the acronym Sisterhood Of Servants (S.O.S) volunteer service organization.

Even though the focus of volunteer service is  helping and serving others, just the benefit of simple fellowship and camaraderie with other women is a valuable investment of time and energy that will reap positive benefits now and in the future. Unity is the underlying "glue" of sisterhood. As sisters we must be united as we perform our volunteer service, always keeping in mind the following principle:  "solidarity breeds strength, but division breeds deficiency"
