"Northminster Women ... Light, Sound, Action!"

Women's Ministries

We invite women of all ages to join us in our celebration of women doing Christ’s work in our church, our community and beyond. We offer many exciting activities to involve you in Christ-centered groups of fun, friendship, support, prayer and Bible study.

We sincerely hope you will find value in the gatherings, studies, circles and events. We encourage you to join in activities of interest to you, and to bring a friend.

Our Purpose

Forgiven and freed by
God in Jesus Christ,
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
(USA) and witnesses
to the promise of
God's kingdom.
