Our
Presbyterian Women’s organization is
composed of over one hundred fifty women who
are led by a Coordinating Team of officers.
The women are divided into nine 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
