Presbyterian Women
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 (USA) and witnesses to the promise of God’s kingdom.
We have general meetings four times a year to which all women of the church are invited. An annual budget is maintained to cover projects for which the women are responsible. Some of those expenses include student grants, local missions, providing the family meal at a time of bereavement, as well as support for the Presbyterian Women in Presbytery/Synod. We give our annual Thank Offering which helps supply grant money to worthy programs in both the U.S. and overseas. The annual Birthday Offering is taken to help support mission projects throughout the world. One of our important local missions is helping Goodland Academy located near Hugo, Oklahoma.
The women maintain a prayer chain to pray for those who are ill or have illness in the family, those who have lost a loved one, or who may have troubles and need the prayers and support of friends.
There are two circles (groups) which meet monthly for bible study and fellowship.
--Dorcas Circle meets at the church at 9:30 a.m. the second Wednesday of the month.
--Lydia Circle meets at the church at 2:30 p.m. the third Thursday of the month.
For us it is an opportunity to study together, to strengthen our faith, and to share in the work of the church.
