    Resource on Women's Organizing in the Church Published 
 
    by Jerry L. Van Marter 
 
LOUISVILLE, Ky.-"Years of Strong Effort," an historical reflection on 
women's organizing efforts in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) between 1967 
and 1993, has been published by the Women's Advocacy Office of the National 
Ministries Division. 
 
    Written by Annette Chapman-Adisho, a former intern in the Women's 
Advocacy Office who is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in history at the 
University of Illinois-Chicago, "Years of Strong Effort" traces the 
development of various women's groups that emerged during this 25-year 
period in the church. 
 
    The restructuring of 1993 essentially brought to an end these 
organizing efforts at the national level of the denomination. 
 
    "Years of Strong Effort" costs $10 and is obtainable from Presbyterian 
Distribution Service at 1-800-524-2612.  Ask for product number PDS 
#72-710-98-001.
