What Presbyterian Women Do

“PW Gives” Day is a day to celebrate and support all that Presbyterian Women makes possible. Whether you give in honor of a person or a program that has shaped your faith journey, your gift helps ensure life-changing ministries and relationships.

Within the pages of this booklet you will find many resources and promotional and gift items to support and enhance your PW ministry. These resources are made available to you, for you.

Celebrating Sabbath: Accepting God’s Gift of Rest and Delight by Carol M. Bechtel with Suggestions for Leaders by Laura Mariko Cheifetz explores Sabbath as a celebration, with passages from Genesis, Exodus, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Matthew, Luke, and Acts. Ultimately, Sabbath reminds us to honor God who honors us by giving us a day each week to reset our pace, our priorities, and our lives.

The Presbyterian Women USA Mission Experience will take place October 13–23, 2023. During this faith deepening and relationship-building trip, the group will visit partners in Phoenix, Tucson, and the Arizona–Mexico border, focusing on immigration and refugee issues, violence against women and children throughout the immigration process, and challenges facing indigenous people living in Arizona.

It has been nearly 125 years since Eliza Clokey of Springfield, Ohio, asked women to give a “thank offering to her Lord” and support mission initiatives at home and abroad. Today faithful givers are still responding to her inspiring call.
