PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN (PW) is a churchwide organization whose membership is open to all women. PW members are those who choose to participate in or be supportive of Presbyterian Women in any way. PW strives to reflect a vision of the whole church as a community of mutual interdependence in which diversity contributes to wholeness. PW gives strong support to the mission of the denomination and the local congregation, and determines its own leadership, program and budget. This congregation of women is a small, but vital part of a worldwide Christian community of 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.
