About the Author:

Sheila Mellick, (1942-2001) freelance writer and lecturer, was self-employed as a Vocation Specialist. She served as Parish Minister and Coordinator of Religious Education at parishes in the Syracuse (NY) Diocese, and as an Interfaith Volunteer Project Director.  She was eager to develop a model for gift-based parish functioning in the Midwest.  In 1993, Sheila founded Christians Called to Something More, Inc (CCSM).  This small grassroots organization, grounded in Church teaching, focused on the need and importance of identifying one's spiritual gifts and personal vocation.

Garth (Gus) Mellick, Sheila's brother and president of CCSM, assigned the copyright to the Fellowship of Catholic Christian Women® ministry in 2019.

The Fellowship of Catholic Christian Women® (FCCW) ministry exists to bring women together in the Spirit, and to deepen each one's personal relationship with God while fostering a faith-based community centered on Christ Jesus.  Fellowship groups form in parishes to help women grow in faith and spiritual commitment by prayerful study and sharing on Catholic/Scriptural topics.
