PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN - JOIN A CIRCLE

join one? |
Circles are small groups of women who join
together for Bible study, fellowship, and fun. Groups
meet at least once a month at church or in members' homes for
meetings of approximately 90 minutes or more. Typical meetings involve
study, time for sharing joys and concerns, mission work, refreshments,
and fellowship. But it's what goes on beyond those monthly meetings
that makes Circles special - the support, the love, the caring of
members for one another - the richness of feeling
part of a larger whole of generous and loving women.
There is a Circle for everyone! Below is a
current list of First Pres Circles and a brief description of the
"character" of each - but there is room for many more. Please
feel free to contact any of the women listed and visit a Circle.
Or please feel free to start your own. We will be happy to help
in any way.
Please join us and Celebrate!
