Our
Presbyterian Women’s organization is
composed of over one hundred twenty women who
are led by a Coordinating Team of officers.
The women are divided into eight circles who
meet in homes or at Highland Farms on the
first Tuesday of the month in the morning,
afternoon, or evening. Bible study in
each circle is led by members of the circle.
Circles participate in service opportunities
throughout the year including:
visiting homebound women, greeting at church
on Sunday mornings, writing monthly letters
to the church’s missionaries, setting up the
fellowship hall for Thursday Night Live
suppers and programs and Gatherings,
providing meals for bereaved families, and
furnishing refreshments for various church
receptions or other functions.
Three special Luncheon Gatherings are held
during the year: The Thank Offering
Program in October, the Missions Emphasis
Program in February, and the PW Birthday
Program in May. Special offerings go
for grants that help disadvantaged women and
children worldwide.
The Presbyterian women are committed to:
·
nurturing their faith through prayer and
Bible study
·
supporting the mission of the church
worldwide
·
working for justice and peace
·
building an inclusive, caring community of
women that strengthens the Presbyterian Church and witnesses to the promise of God’s
kingdom

On
September 6, 2011, Presbyterian Women
began their new year. Most women
are assigned to new circles.
The Bible Study this year is "Confessing the Beatitudes," by Margaret
Aymer.

The Ruth Circle and spouses again enjoyed a
June luncheon
and visit with member Mary McMurray and Bill at their Lake
Tahoma home.
