Presbyterian Women - WPW
We follow a rich heritage of providing women unique opportunities for fellowship, study and service.
In the very midst of our commitments to families, careers, and community life, we seek to continually enrich our understanding of what it means to be a disciple of Christ.
All women are invited to engage in a group fitting their interest:
- Horizons Bible Study Circles
- Movie View & Review Circles
- Sewing Circle
- Reading Circle
- Come to the Table (see below for information on this new Circle)
If interested, contact John@westminsterdayton.org
Circles* are the heartbeat of WPW.
Seasonal gatherings and mission projects complete the picture of WPW.
The Presbyterian Women’s logo shows a central figure standing in praise, reaching to embrace a just peace, and forming a cross. The right figure holds a book to symbolize her reading, studying praying, and meditating. The Bible resembles the same Bible shown in our denominational seal. The left figure reaches out to care for others as she shares, nurture, and heals. The circle represents the church worldwide where women offer their gifts and talents to a global community. The relationship between the three figures depicts lives of wholeness rather than turmoil. The three women have no distinct features. They represent all women.

*Circles is the WPW code word for small groups of women. Sometimes they sit in rectangles, too.

COME TO THE TABLE – a New Circle
Come to the Table, a new circle of Westminster Presbyterian Women (WPW), is organizing cooking classes for the Samaritan Homeless Clinic. The goal of the classes, taught by WPW folks, is to help the clients at the Samaritan Homeless Clinic become healthier.
Those who wish to teach a class need to attend a training session given by Jean De Brosse. The next teaching class will be held on March 14, at 1:30 p.m. Those who previously taught classes will join this class at 2:45 p.m. to discuss experiences in teaching (how we can improve, what worked, what didn’t, etc.).
The next adventure is cooking for the Ronald McDonald House. Preparation of meals for 30-35 people is needed on March 2, 14, 25 and 27. Volunteers are needed to prepare the food.
To join Come to the Table circle, help with cooking classes at the Samaritan Homeless Clinic, or volunteer to prepare food for the Ronald McDonald House please contact Sue Perry (937-620-9966 or suecrna@woh.rr.com).
