 Presbyterian Women 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 (USA) and witnesses to the promise of God’s Kingdom.

Our Circles
Like circles begun by pebbles thrown in water, Westminster Presbyterian Church Circles grow stronger with each member. New church members will be contacted by Elizabeth Busby, PW Vice Moderator. If you are not currently in a circle but would like to be, contact Elizabeth at 706-235-1889 and join today. Visitors are always welcome. One of the best ways to know people at Westminster is by being a member of a Circle. Through sharing, Bible study, worshiping together in small groups, forming relationships of mutual concern and support for each other, the church and the world can be built. There are three Circles at Westminster and we hope you will join one of these. They meet monthly from September - May, and combined Circles meet in the summer. You will find the list of our meetings in the bulletin, Westwind, and this website. If you would like a different time or format, please let Elizabeth Busby know about your interest at 706-235-1889. |
Our Ministry
Education: This year the Circles will study Horizons' Josua: A Journey of Faith.
Mission Project for January
Presbyterian Women have monthly mission projects that we support throughout the year, including Health kits, school supplies for the Open Door Home and WCA, Santa Claus Express, the Mosquito Net Project and others. Watch the Westwind and weekly bulletins for current projects. Please place donations on the Mission table in the Commons. Keep these project in your thoughts and prayers. Fellowship: Monthly Circle meetings, Come See Columbia Day, PW Birthday Program, and PW Mission Opportunity Workday provide fellowship opportunities. Service: Our Circles participate in numerous projects and services to benefit the church, the community, and the world. It is through sharing God's love that we serve on the various Session committees at Westminster. Stewardship: The Circles support PW work at the Presbytery, Synod, and General Assembly levels with donations over and above our pledge to the church. There are offerings for world mission projects including Presbyterian Homes, Samaritan's Purse, Santa Claus Express, Thank Offering, and Least Coin Offering. |
