UNITED PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
WOMEN'S MINISTRIES
Presbyterian Women
Presbyterian Women (PW) is an independent organization within the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) of more than 300,000 women. The programming and resource options for the organization offer a variety of ways for women to live out their faith in an inclusive, caring community. PW groups can choose to support the PW Purpose in any way, so PW groups may look very different from one synod to the next . . . or even one circle to the next within the same congregation!
Our missions is very simple, but very important
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.
PW Circle
This September, 2025, the Presbyterian Women (PW) will begin their new study “ FINDING RESILIENCE, JOY and our IDENTITY IN JESUS CHRIST”. It will remind us that our Core Identity is our Humanity and our relationship to the world as Children of God. However, as humans, we stray and the time comes, more often than not, that we must REFRESH our beliefs and recognize that we do change and it is good to discuss this with others. We meet monthly on the 4th Thursday except November, December and May where we have a Thank Offering, a potluck with the Fellowship of the Least Coin Offering and May is a Birthday Offering. We support missions, the local hunger program and other needs as we might discuss.
Let Yvonne Wegner know if you want a copy of the study, maybe to just read on your own if you do not want to be part of a group. She will order and have them at the church office. Our first meeting is September 25 at 1:00 p.m. in the parlor and moving to the fellowship hall for coffee after the lesson. You may contact Jackie Tarpinian about PW if you have questions or to let us know you will be attending whenever possible. The fellowship is priceless. (check our church directory for emails, phone numbers).
All women of the church are encouraged to participate in, or be supportive of Presbyterian Women in any way.
