The organization of Presbyterian Women (PW) follows that of the Presbyterian Church (USA):
Presbyterian Women
are all the women members of the PC(USA) nationally, a group that holds a meeting (called the Churchwide Gathering) once every three years. The joy of worshipping, singing, and learning with several thousand women is tremendous!
PW in the Synod
includes all the women members located in a particular synod, a larger regional area with perhaps annual gatherings. We are a part of the PW in the Synod of the Pacific.
PW in the Presbytery
includes all the women members located in a particular Presbytery, or regional body. This group usually gathers several times a year. We are the PW in the Presbytery of the Cascades
PW in the Church
includes all the women members of a particular congregation, who gather for Bible Study, fellowship and worship. If you are interested in forming a Presbyterian Women’s group in your church, please contact the Cascades PW Moderator.
