She also created a branch of the WCTU called the Women's Regiment of Beer. She preached to women and men in the central village meeting place, which until then had been a male political place. She increased women's activism and membership in the church, and conducted church-related classes and taught women how to conduct their own classes. She also promoted modern medicine and midwifery.
