Duncannon Presbyterian Church Women’s Association

At our 2010 January Meeting it was decided by the 4 members present that the women’s association would become inactive. 

This was a hard decision for us, but we do not have the members or the support to continue at this time.

By officially being placed as inactive, we will not loose the years of service that the women of the past, who with love and devotion kept it alive and active since 1882.

I hope that sometime in the future there will be women who will take the interest to restore the women’s association as “Active” again

The remaining money in the treasury was used to purchase light weight tables for the fellowship hall.  These tables are presented by the Women’s Association in honor of Emma Lott and Dorothy Simmons.  Theses two ladies kept the association active for many years.

The balance of the money was donated to the Building Fund.

Love in Christ,

Roberta Lightner

President

God bless all who were faithful and supportive in the past.
 

The PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN'S Purpose

Forgiven and freed by God in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit,
we commit ourselves to nurture our faith through prayer and Bible study
to support the mission of the church worldwide
to work for justice and peace, and to build an inclusive, caring community of women
that strengthens the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)
and witnesses to the promise of God's kingdom.

Presbyterian Women’s Association Circle
A Circle is:
Where faith is nurtured and growth takes place through worship, study, friendship and outreach.
Where women are challenged to stretch beyond their limits
Where women move beyond the safe places of life and reach out to others.
Where Christian leadership is born, nurtured and sent forth into ministry.

A circle “costs” something! 
Members must be willing to participate in prayer,
 study and service, and learn how to be accepting and forgiving of each other.

Treasurer of Duncannon Presbyterian Church Women's Association Retires

Dorothy Simmons has been the treasurer for many years (do not know how many)
had a bad fall last year, the assistant treasurer took over her duties in 2008
hoping that Dorothy would be coming back.
Dorothy had another fall and is now doing well but not able to fulfill her duties as treasurer.
We pray that God will continue to heal her and bless her for the many years of service
she gave to this association.

Thank You Dorothy.
