Presbyterian Women
All women of the church and of the community are welcome to participate in our activities. Our motto for 2012-2013 is "Looking Forward Into Our Future.”
During the 2012-2013 year we will not have any business meetings. Instead we will try to discern where we should go in the future. Using the World Café pattern, we will hold conversations with many women of the church trying to find ways to better serve them.
Fellowship programs to be held in 2012-13 are:
The Holiday Bazaar, "An Old Fashioned Christmas," will be on Tuesday, Nov. 13, 5 pm to 8 pm and Wednesday, Nov. 14, 10 am to 3 pm.Mother – Daughter – Sister Dinner on April 10, 2013 at 6:00 pm
The Spring Rummage Sale is April 20, 2013, 9 am to 2 pm.
Picnic on June 6, 2013 at 6:30 pm
Three Circles meet monthly in the morning or evening. Varied programs, refreshments, and mission projects, in addition to fellowship, are provided. A monthly Bible Study Group is held on the first Wednesday of the month at 10 a.m. The theme for 2012-2013 is "Dispatches to God’s Household: The General Epistles.” Everyone is welcome to attend.
Volunteer Opportunities
Mission Sewing: The Kemper Sewing Group meets on the third Monday morning of each month at church to sew for Children's Hospital.
Martha's Meals: At a time of death in a family, upon request, a simple meal for the bereaved family is provided. This may be served at church or at the family's home.
Salvation Army Dolls: These dolls are given at Christmas time to needy little girls through the Salvation Army Christmas Store. Volunteers are needed to dress and prepare the dolls.
Annual Bazaar: The Bazaar will be held on Tuesday, November 13, (5 pm to 8 pm) in the evening, and Wednesday, November 14 (10 am - 3 pm). In preparation, workshops for crafts and sewing are held weekly during the year at church and work can be done at home.
Rummage Sales: Two sales are held each year, one in the fall and one in the spring. Volunteers are always needed to help sort, arrange and sell items. Profits from the Bazaar and rummage sales go to mission causes and church needs.
An annual Presbyterian Women's Yearbook listing the year's events and circle activities and membership is available at church.
