Women’s Bible Study

All women 18 – 100+ years old are invited to join us for a Bible Study .There are two groups (Circles) that meet at St. Andrew on the 2nd Tuesday of each month September-May.

  • One group meets 10:00-11:15am and goes to lunch afterwards (optional).
  • The other group meets 7:00-8:15pm and child care is provided.

The 2018-2019 PW Bible Study , God’s Promise: I Am with You, we will discover how God’s promise speaks to our circumstances, as individuals and as a community. The Bible Study is led by Pastor Mark.

Fundraisers

The Presbyterian Women gathered together for their annual buckeye candy fundraiser. Like their many fundraisers, they are a major help in collecting funds for our many projects at Saint Andrew. Check out their last buckeye candy meet as they prepared those delicious treats!

Presbyterian Women’s Lifetime Membership Awarded

Francis Wolford was awarded a PW Lifetime Membership Sunday September 9, 2018 at St. Andrew Presbyterian Church.

September 21, 1961 , eleven women of St Andrew Church of Williamsport met to organize a WOC ( Women of the Church) organization.  Today the Presbyterian Women want to honor one of those original women with an Honorary Life Membership . If you look at the charter on the display boards in the foyer you will see her name as Mrs. Lewis E. Wolford. We know her as Francis, Francis would you please come up to receive your certificate and pin.

An Honorary Life Membership in Presbyterian Women honors an individual’s faithful service. According to the original charter Mrs. Lewis Wolford was installed as Chairman of Annuities , Relief, and General Fund Agencies. As part of the original eleven women Francis helped; draw up a Constitution and By- Laws, started the first Circle Bible Study, had a Christmas party for the children of the church and organized family night suppers. Francis continued to service in many ways in the following years. Without Francis and other faithful women like her the WOC now known as Presbyterian Women wouldn’t exist here at St Andrew. Francis thank you for your faithful service, we love you and appreciate all of your hard work.
