Presbyterian Women is an organisation within the Presbyterian Church in Ireland that enables, encourages and equips women to become disciples of Christ.
Who We Are
Glascar Presbyterian Women, (PW), meets the third Tuesday of each month in the Church Hall for fellowship and fun. Unfortunately, in light of the challenges of the ongoing pandemic, our PW monthly meetings cannot take place as usual. PCI has however extended the 2020/21 theme of Side by Side for a further twelve months. Below are some videos from ‘Inspirations’, ‘Special Home & Overseas Projects’ supported by PW & PCI Women’s Ministry, which we hope you find both inspiring and encouraging.
Each year, Presbyterian Women selects a Home and Overseas project to support through the PW Mission Fund. These projects are selected by the PW Panel and reflect the missional heart of our organisation.
Special Home
Project
Through the PW Mission Fund, Presbyterian Women’s Special Home Project for 2020/21 will support the work of CARE NI (Christian Action Research and Education).
Our Special Home Project for 2020/21 will specifically support projects called ‘Loved’ and ‘Open’ which provide miscarriage support for both women and men. This project will meet a very significant need in the lives of many.
Special Overseas
Project
In November 2019, the PW President, Karen Craig, visited Nepal where she met staff in Okhaldhunga Community Hospital. Established as a small clinic in 1962, the hospital now provides affordable, quality health care to people from surrounding villages who come seeking assistance. It is now a 50 bed facility, with a Mothers' Waiting Home (for women who travel from distant areas to be near the hospital before their delivery), operating facilities and a busy Outpatients' Department.
Presbyterian Women’s Special Overseas Project for 2020/21 will support the work of this home.
women’s ministry
A video produced by PCI to open up questions for discussion about women's ministry. From "How can women's ministry fit into the bigger vision of a congregation?" to "How does women's ministry serve the work of the whole congregation?'“
