Presbyterian Women

Purpose: To nurture faith through prayer and Bible study, to support the mission of the church worldwide, to work for justice and peace, and to build a caring community of women.

History: The Outer Banks chapter of Presbyterian Women began in 1983 and has continued, uninterrupted, to serve the women of this church and the community.

There are two circles that meet once a month in members’ homes:

Dorcas Circle: First Thursday of the month at 9:30am

Lydia Circle: Second Wednesday of the month at 9:30am

There are joint luncheon gatherings in September, February and June.

What To Expect: Meetings begin and end with laughter, camaraderie, and chatting. This social time binds us in sisterhood. After the mingling, we settle into prayer and raise up our concerns for our church family. Each year Horizons provides a thematic Bible study. After completing the lesson, we hold our business meeting where we discuss our work in the church or community. Presbyterian Women operates independently from the church budget and is funded through nominal monthly donations to the circles. The money collected from the mission goes to serve unique projects within the United States and the World. Each year Horizons Magazine publishes a list of all the recipients of funds from the donations.

Every year Presbyterian Women honors one of its elder and faithful servants with the title, “Honorary Life Member.” This prestigious title comes with a framed certificate and a pin.

If you would enjoy joining Presbyterian Women, please call the church office! We would love to have you.
