Tuesday 7:45pm Fortnightly

 PWA has gone – no, not heresy, just a statement of fact!  It has become ‘Presbyterian Women’.

 Now a name change can be just that – a name change. But that really defeats the purpose of what PCI had in mind when this was first mooted.  The mission statement aims to encourage all women to become disciples of Christ and seek to fulfil the new motto of the organisation ‘Living for Jesus’ and highlight the need for:

1. Love and unity,
2. Obedience to God,
3. Christian living and spiritual maturity,
4. Service, using gifts, time and money
5. Local and global mission

 The circle around the cross on the new logo represents women whose lives are centred on the Lord Jesus Christ.

 We would like to encourage you – yes, YOU – to come along and join with us.  We meet on alternate Tuesday nights at 7.45 pm.

Now we know that’s not always possible, especially if you have other commitments like a young family or a full time job (maybe even both!!), but please try to join us some of the time.  There are no age limits, no barriers, and those of us who are already involved don’t bite – but we really do want your input and your ideas to make ‘Presbyterian Women’ exactly that – an encompassing group of all women in the High Kirk family.

This year’s varied programme includes some people from ‘Commission’, a Belfast based charity making programmes for Christian radio stations all over the world including FEBA, HCJB, TWR and our own Downtown and U105.  We’ll be learning about some aspects of Asian cookery, hearing about the work going on in the local ethnic community forum, learning a bit of what life is like as a deaconess and of course, we’ll hear from some of our own High Kirk folks who are working with those living in our own area.  These are just a few examples of what is in store.  As you know, we have ‘adopted’ a little school (Lusangazi) in Malawi and have already sent out school books, jotters, pens, pencils, etc. with money to purchase sheets of tin for  a roof and to buy bricks to help build a teacher’s house.  Soon we are hoping to send out 2 complete football kits so that the children can have some fun as well as learn their lessons.

Every night is different, every night is special, and every night is Christ centred, so please think about coming along.  

 We look forward to seeing you.
