Presbyterian Women (PW): See the Calendar page for current activities. Who are the Presbyterian Women (PW)? PW is the national women’s organization of the Presbyterian Church (USA). With a history of more than 200 years and more than 300,000 members, PW is organized at all levels of the Presbyterian Church (USA). Trinity United Presbyterian Church is fortunate to have two PW Circle meetings each month. The PCUSA website (www.pcusa.org/pw) explains the PW Purpose is for women to commit themselves to nurture faith through prayer and Bible study, to support the mission of the church, to work for justice and peace, and to build an inclusive, caring community of women that strengthens the PCUSA and witnesses the promise of God’s kingdom. Since the 1800’s PW have organized themselves to support mission and combat social injustices nationally and internationally. The PCUSA provides materials for PW groups just getting started or needing some energy. There are a variety of activities, missions and projects coordinated by the PW organizations around the world. |
Every woman in the church is a member automatically. While the ladies circles are part of the PW, you do not have to attend any circle meetings to be part of PW. You are it. Here at Trinity United PC, the PW Naomi Circle meets on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 10:30am. Naomi Circle is currently using the Horizons Bible Study as a guide. Be sure to check the website or newsletter calendar for the meeting schedule. Because so many of our employed women are unable to attend a weekday morning ladies’ circl e, we have Sarah Circle which meets on the second Tuesday of the month. Women are always welcome to attend PW Circle meetings. All church women are encouraged to come and share ideas, thoughts and prayers. The future of Trinity United PW depends on you! A member of each group sits on the coordinating committee and their coordinator is Sharon Auger. |
