Presbyterian Women's Statement of Purpose: 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.
Gifts of Women Sunday was celebrated on February 12. We had a wonderful time. Thanks to
all who helped plan, sang, led in worship and worshiped with us. We are privileged to be
able to serve God in this way. I am especially grateful to Jean West for leading the music,
Rabel Parsons for playing piano and organ. Jamie Szarolita's message was wonderful. I can
tell. I came out of there with my toes crushed, always the sign of a good sermon.
Congratulations to Trish Tutt the newest Life Member of Presbyterian Women. No, that does not mean you get to retire.
Our next event will be the Birthday Gathering in March 26. This will be a luncheon with
birthday cake. The Birthday offering will be received and officers elected for 2012/2013.
Paul will have sandwiches with soup or salad. Weather can go either way in March. The cost
of lunch is $4.00.
We are beginning to plan for another Mother/Daughter and Girls of All Ages luncheon for
May 12. We want to share YOUR wedding dress or your mother's or your grandmother's. Let us
know what is in your attic.
Come join a circle, if you haven't already. The Bible study is a challenge and the
fellowship is wonderful. I was complimenting one circle leader for the care a sick member
had received and she replied, “We just love each other.” Get in on this.
