The Purpose of the
National Organization
of
Presbyterian Women is:
“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 witness to the promise of God’s kingdom.”

What are the "Circles" of Presbyterian Women?
Circles are small groups of
Christian women sharing Biblical study, friendship,
fellowship, service and support to each other and our church
family.
With eight Circles in total, meeting different times, days, and
locations, there is one to fit every woman’s busy
schedule. Join us in any of the circles listed below!
