SUMMARY:BWIM Female Neurodivergent Ministers Affinity Group
DESCRIPTION:If you are a neurodivergent female minister\, you belong here. BWIM’s Neurodivergent Affinity Group is a new monthly space for connection\, shared learning\, and solidarity—open to those with formal diagnoses and those who self-identify. This is a space where you are invited to bring your full self—your experiences\, your questions\, your ways of being. Together\, we’ll honor our experiences and celebrate what it means to be neurodivergent \nRegister today to join us.  https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/NnKLz2SLj45ps6ZEZmUfFg \nFACILITATOR \nMaggie Clark serves as a children’s pastor and professor of ethics and philosophy. She holds a Master of Divinity from Wake Forest University School of Divinity and a Master of Science in Philosophy from the University of Edinburgh. Maggie brings both lived experience\, with autism and adhd\, and a deep curiosity and compassion to conversations around neurodivergence. As queer disabled woman\, she has spent years learning to navigate spaces and institutions not always designed with her in mind\, including faith communities. That experience has shaped her passion for disability studies and advocacy\, and her commitment to building communities where belonging is practiced\, not just proclaimed. She is particularly interested in partnering with churches and faith communities to become more accessible and genuinely welcoming for people with invisible disabilities\, including clergy. \nNikki Hardeman serves as Director of Advocating for Women in Ministry at BWIM. She holds a Master of Divinity from McAfee School of Theology and has served in a variety of ministry contexts\, including local church ministry\, denominational leadership\, and interim pastoral work. Nikki also brings lived experience to conversations around neurodivergence. Living with ADHD since childhood\, she has spent years learning how to navigate and thrive in a world not always designed for neurodivergent ways of being. Through ongoing reading\, listening\, and learning\, she has developed a thoughtful\, experience-based perspective shaped by curiosity\, adaptation\, and everyday life with ADHD.

SUMMARY:BWIM Arkansas/Louisiana/Mississippi Fall Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Join BWIM Arkansas/Louisiana/Mississippi for a time of rest\, renewal\, and fellowship\, November 8–10\, at beautiful Poverty Point Reservoir State Park. \nBeginning with dinner on Saturday evening and concluding after lunch on Monday\, this retreat offers Baptist clergywomen space to step away from the demands of ministry and reconnect with themselves\, one another\, and God. \nParticipants will stay together in waterfront cabins in a relaxed\, rustic setting designed to encourage community\, conversation\, and rest. Throughout the retreat\, we will share meaningful spiritual formation experiences\, time for reflection and renewal\, opportunities for worship and storytelling\, and plenty of space simply to breathe and enjoy fellowship together. \nRetreat activities will also include a visit to the Poverty Point World Heritage Site\, offering participants the opportunity to experience the rich history and sacred significance of this remarkable place. \nThe clergy member and/or church will be responsible for transportation\, a $50 registration fee\, and two dinners at the conference center. \nBWIM will provide breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\, and lodging costs beyond the registration fee. \nRegistration is $50 and is due by July 1.\n \nWe hope you will join us for this meaningful time of retreat\, connection\, and encouragement in ministry. \nRegister Here \nQuestions? Reach out to Tanya Parks at tanya@ubc-br.org.
