Presbyterian Women

Our Presbyterian Women serve a vital behind-the-scenes role at Bethesda Presbyterian Church.

Throughout the year they meet and raise money for the following projects:

Ivymount School, Senior Connections, Hearts & Homes for Youth, Bethesda Cares, Title I Schools, Head Start,

Rainbow Place Women’s Shelter, Church World Service Church Women United, Presbyterian Children’s Home of the Highlands, Presbyterian Homes for Children in Lynchburg, NIH Children’s Inn, Edmarc Program for Disabled Children, Fisher House for families of wounded servicemen.

Our P.W. are a dedicated group of ladies that always seem to be there to lend that helping hand whenever needed. There are two Circles that meet Oct through June. The Day Circle meets the 1st Thursday of the month at 10:30AM & the Evening Circle meets the 2nd Monday of the month at 6:30PM. Come for meal, Bible Study and fellowship.
