The Presbyterian Womens purpose is as follows:
Forgiven and freed by God in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves
· to nurture our faith through prayer and Bible study,
· to support the mission of the church worldwide,
· to work for justice and peace,
· and to build an inclusive, caring community of women that strengthens the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)
and witnesses to the promise of God's kingdom.
Presbyterian meets 9 months of the year (See calander page). We meet for prayer, Bible study, and
fellowship with a meal. We each pledge a yearly offering amount, which goes to mission giving on the
church-wide (national), synod, and presbytery levels. Some of the money stays in the church for mission
and other projects. We also have 3 special offerings: Fellowship of the Least Coin, which is a monthly
offering; the Thanksgiving Offering; and the Birthday Offering. The recipients of these offerings are chosen
each year by a church-wide committee.
We hope you will join us at our meetings. Everyone is welcome!
A Logo with Purpose
Forgiven and freed by God in Jesus Christ,
Forgiven and freed by grace through faith, the central figure stands in praise.
and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves:
Rooted in faith, the trio of women emerge. The outline of the central figure forms a cross. We are
Presbyterian women, engrafted in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is no longer we who live, but
Christ who lives in us.
to nurture our faith through prayer and Bible study,
The right figure holds a book to guide her reading, studying, praying or meditating.
to support the mission of the church worldwide,
The left figure reaches out to care for others, as she shares, nurtures and heals. The circle represents the
church worldwide where women offer their gifts and talents in the midst of the global community.
to work for justice and peace,
The uplifted arms of the central figure reach out to embrace a just peace for the world. The relationship
between the three figures depicts lives of wholeness rather than turmoil.
and to build an inclusive, caring, community of women.
The three women have no distinct features and represent all women. The shapes surrounding them express
energy, strength and openness.
