The Fall Gathering of the Presbyterian Women of Western New York is planned for Sunday afternoon, October 19th, at Westminster Presbyterian Church - 724 Delaware Avenue - Buffalo, NY 14209. Their phone number is 716-884-9437.
Registration begins at 1:15 PM. The event begins with lunch, followed by the program at 2:00 and worship at 3:45 PM.
The theme of the gathering is: Jubilee! Opening Doors to Justice and Peace. The theme is intended to complement the current Presbyterian Women's Bible Study, Jubilee! Lukes Gospel for the Poor.
The speaker of the day is Louise Davidson, Vice Moderator for Justice and Peace for the Church-wide Coordinating Team of the national Presbyterian Women organization. Ms. Davidson will share how the Gospel vision of justice and peace can impact local communities in new and creative ways. Following Ms. Davidsons presentation, attendees will gather in groups to identify ways to respond to the theme in their own congregations and communities.
The gathering will culminate in a worship service, during which participants will be invited to make personal commitments to take action for justice and peace as an integral part of their work as Presbyterian women.
