Purpose Statement
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
Women meet on the 1st and the 3rd Thursday of the month
at 1:30 pm in the Fireside Room. The first meeting of
the month is our Fellowship and Study meeting when one
of our group leads the study undertaken for the year from
the Horizons Study Guide. As we have a different leader
each month this makes for interesting and varied lessons.
Our second meeting of the month is our Program meeting
and usually is presented by a local group or organization
to help us understand more fully the many facets of our
community.
During
the year we sponsor and participate in many events, several
of them fundraisers, enabling us to participate in Presbyterian
and non-Presbyterian Mission Giving. Events include: preparing
mailings for Summer Camp; Christian Women's Luncheons;
Women's R&R/Women's Weekend Retreat; Valentine Candy
Sale; World Day of Prayer; Birthday Brunch; sewing at
Westminster Woods; Spring Blossom Tea; Pot Luck Luncheons;
Pie Sale; Book Sale; Benefit Lunch and Game Day; Mendocino
Christian Camp Retreat; Christmas Bazaar and Luncheon.
Presbyterian
Women is open to all women members and friends of the
congregation. We are a warm, friendly and supportive group
that cares for each other and we extend an invitation
to join us at any of our meetings. CLICK
