Are you looking for ways to get women in your church more involved with Bible study, mission work, and fellowship with each other?  I’ve got a great way of doing all of that.

Presbyterian Women (or PW) is the women’s organization of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
Participation is open to all women in your congregation.

Some Presbyterian Women are retired and may occasionally do mission from a rocking chair.  But Presbyterian Women also includes college-aged women, working  women, women dedicated to service, and newly retired women.

Presbyterian Women includes women who crochet, but also women who play volleyball, tutor math, and collect postage stamps.

Presbyterian Women is diverse.  We are diverse in age and ethnicity, interests and abilities.

Presbyterian Women meet at the congregation level in “circles”.  No matter what the activities, as long as women meet to build community, support mission, nurture faith and/or work for justice and peace, those women are forming a “circle”.  No matter how many or how few activities a women’s circle undertakes, if they do it on behalf of the PW Purpose, they are a PW circle.

Yes, Presbyterian Women’s groups often study the Bible together.  They also live their faith through ministries in hospitals, prisons, schools and shelters.  Creatively, prayerfully, joyfully.  .

Yes, Presbyterian Women can sometimes be found in the church kitchen preparing meals for Wednesday fellowship, collecting cans of food for food banks, or baking cookies for presbytery meetings.  We can also be found sitting on the board of our local food banks, raising funds for clean water, and speaking to our elected representatives about hunger in our communities.

Yes, Presbyterian Women of the Church has been around for over 200 years, and it changed to PW and will celebrate its 30-year anniversary in 2018.  We continue to grow and transform – creating fresh ways to build community, develop leaders, and advocate for those in need.
