PW’S ANNUAL FUND

2017

For just as the body is one and hasmany members, and all the membersof the body, though many, are onebody, so it is with Christ. For in theone Spirit we were all baptized intoone body—Jews or Greeks, slaves orfree—and we were all made to drinkof one Spirit.

—1 Corinthians 12:12 –13

Page 2: Mission Pledge

Presbyterian Women’s Mission Pledge, the annual fund of PW, begins with a prayer and agift, in circles and outside of them (an online donation, a check in the mail, a bequest).

Every dollar given supports PW at all levels of the organization—refreshments in your church,guest speakers at PW presbytery gatherings, publishing Horizons magazine and Bible study,Churchwide participation (including the triennial Gatherings and the mission tours, theGlobal Exchange and the U.S.A. Mission Experience) and so much more.

As “one body, one spirit,” Presbyterian Women come together every three years to celebrate,worship, learn and guide the organization. We call this triennial event our ChurchwideGathering. Although participants pay a registration fee, the Mission Pledge supports much ofthe cost of the Gathering. Being together in one place is vital and opens tremendouspossibilities.

For example, during the 2015 Churchwide Gathering in Minneapolis, PW’s Indonesianguests were so moved, they extended an offer to host PW for the 2017 Global Exchange.Thanks to this connection—made possible by the work of the Spirit and gifts to the MissionPledge—Presbyterian Women from around the United States will soon travel to Indonesia tolearn about “building bridges” in a multifaith world. They will return with stories to tell,inspiring others in churches, coffee shops, living rooms, waiting rooms, newsletters, andanywhere and everywhere that presents an opportunity. The connections they establish willinspire ministry for years to come.

The ripple effect of the Global Exchange is exemplified by the relationship establishedbetween Sherry Flyr, who traveled to Ghana during the 2002 Global Exchange to Africa, andDora Memorial School and its founder Vida Dzobo. Upon her return to Wyoming Presbytery,Sherry widely shared the story of the school and the girls who learned there. Thanks toSherry’s passion for this project, the women of her presbytery (and others) became familiarwith this school and its students and, in turn, transformed lives by funding building projectsand scholarships. Sherry has recently joined the cloud of witnesses, but her gracious legacy ofcare for this project continues. Says Gail Heimbuck, PWP moderator, “It truly was Sherry’ssharing of the story of the Dora Memorial School and Vida’s leadership and commitment tothe students that moved so many to support the school. Sherry was very passionate about it.”

The Mission Pledge also makes possible USA Mission Experiences, another relationship-building trip with life-changing ripples. Reflecting on her participation in the 2010 USAMission Experience, Alexis Presseau Maloof said, “The witnessing and listening trip I took toSouth Dakota with USA Mission Experience changed what I thought I knew about thehistory of our country and about PW. Visiting churches in the Dakota Presbytery, and at PineRidge and Sisseton-Wahpeton Indian Reservations created bonds that remain strong andopened new paths to understanding our Native PW sisters.”

PW’s Mission Pledge does so much for so many. As you give and encourage giving, pleaseprayerfully consider the many people, programs and possibilities that are transformed or madepossible by and because of the Mission Pledge. Your gift can ensure the ripples of impact andpassion continue well into the future.

The Mission Pledge of Presbyterian WomenPW’S ANNUAL FUND

Dear Sisters in Christ,You may notice that three new words have been added to the cover of PW’s Mission Pledge packet: “PW’s Annual

Fund.” These three little words help convey the very big truth about the Mission Pledge: that it is the financial lifebloodof Presbyterian Women.

The Mission Pledge is second- and third-mile giving—gifts given in circles, online and through estates and bequests.It’s funded freely and lovingly . . . but is asked to accomplish so much! As the annual fund, the Mission Pledge funds orbuoys nearly every PW ministry. This includes the Churchwide Gathering, Horizons Bible study and magazine, theChurchwide Coordinating Team, presbytery- and synod-level PW programming, ecumenical participation, our staff,even gifts to our denomination. Gifts to PW’s special offerings—the Thank and Birthday Offerings—as well as toother ecumenical ministries, are very important, but those also flourish, in part, because the Mission Pledge invests inrelationships and awareness of justice, peace, mission and leadership development. Thank you for your gifts that havemade these ministries possible!

I ask that you prayerfully reflect on the importance of Presbyterian Women—in your life and in the world. Pleasegive, participate accordingly and invite others to do the same. Your support of Presbyterian Women matters. Your giftsto the Mission Pledge ensure PW’s continued vibrant witness and ministries.

Amadas Hermanas en Cristo,Habrás notado que tres nuevas palabras le han sido añadidas a la cubierta del paquete de la Promesa de Misión: “Mujeres

Presbiterianas Fondo Anual”. Estas tres pequeñas palabras nos ayudan a transmitir nuestra gran verdad sobre el fondo demisión: que es la vida financiera de Mujeres Presbiterianas (MP).

La Promesa de Misión es la segunda y tercera milla adicional de aportación los donativos ofrecidos en círculos, en línea ya través de testamento y legados. Es ofrendada libre y amorosamente . . . pero es solicitada para completar mucho más. Comoel Fondo Anual, la Promesa de Misión sostiene casi todos los ministerios de MP. Esto incluye el Encuentro Nacional deMujeres Presbiterianas, Estudio Biblico y Revista Horizons, Equipo Coordinador de Mujeres de toda la Iglesia,programación de Mujeres Presbiterianas en presbiterios y sínodos, participación ecuménica, nuestro equipo profesional detrabajo, y hasta donativos a nuestra denominación. Donativos a las ofrendas especiales de MP—las Ofrendas de Gratitud yCumpleaños—como también a los ministerios ecuménicos son bien importantes, pero estos han florecido en parte, porquela La Promesa de Misión invierte en relaciones y vigila por la justicia, paz, misión y el desarrollo de liderato. Gracias a susdonativos es que se han hecho posibles estos ministerios.

Solicito que en oración reflexionen sobre la importancia de Mujeres Presbiterianas—en su vida y en el mundo. Por favor,aporten, participen adecuadamente e inviten a otras a hacer lo mismo. Respalden los ministerios de MP. Sus donativos a LaPromesa de Misión asegurarán la continuidad del vibrante testimonio y los ministerios de Mujeres Presbiterianas.

What Does the Mission Pledge Do?

The Mission Pledge, PW’s annual fund, supports every mission and ministry ofPW—no exceptions. Here is what was made possible in 2015 and 2016 because of

your generosity:

• PW groups at all levels—congregation, presbytery, synod and churchwide—throughprogramming, publishing and related staff support

• Participation in events that develop and enhance PW leadership, including presbyteryand synod events

• Continued mission partnerships with our sisters in South Dakota, Appalachia, Indiaand the Caribbean, through the USA Mission Experience and the Global Exchange

• Involvement in mission projects, like Little Dresses for Africa, where washable sani-pads are made and distributed to girls in Africa, enabling them to stay in school

• Peace and justice initiatives and advocacy efforts, such as promoting children’s literacyin connection with the PC(USA)’s Educate a Child initiative

• Solidarity through ecumenical movements, including World Day of Prayer,Fellowship of the Least Coin and Church Women United

• Presence at General Assembly, Big Tent and other churchwide events

• Regular meetings of an intentionally diverse and representative ChurchwideCoordinating Team/board. This group—with representatives from each synod andthe major racial ethnic groups in the church, as well as new immigrant women andyoung women—collectively discerns the goa ls and work of the organization.

• The award-winning publishing ministry of PW, including partial support forHorizons magazine (both print and digital formats), the PW/Horizons Bible studyand other materials

• Continued management of PW, an effective national nonprofit with worldwidemission and ministry reach—your gifts allow payment for necessary commonoperating expenses such as rent, utilities, insurance, staffing and office supplies.

• PW support of PC(USA) mission and partnerships

This is the most common question about the Mission Pledge. And the answer is,that as PW’s annual fund, the Mission Pledge supports every PW mission and

ministry.Mission Pledge gifts help fund the creation and nurturing of mission partnerships;

justice and peace advocacy and other actions; engagement in ecumenical movements;new directions in leadership enhancement and training; the production of Bible studiesto nurture your faith, and magazines to broaden your awareness; support of yourPC(USA) denomination; and much more. Your Mission Pledge gift also supportscommon operating expenses for PW—from rent and staff to insurance and theChurchwide Coordinating Team/board. Giving to the Mission Pledge means carryingPW’s witness and care around the world.

What’s included in this packet?There are several pieces enclosed to help youpromote and receive gifts toward the MissionPledge, PW’s annual fund:

√ introductory letter from Carol Winkler, 2015–2018 moderator of PW’s ChurchwideCoordinating Team

√ Mission Pledge interpretive materials

√ Mission Pledge forms for PW in theCongregation and PW in the Presbytery

√ Mission Pledge card template

Please use this packet and enclosed materials in the fall of 2016 for financial commitments to the2017 PW Mission Pledge. Feel free to photocopyany of the materials, or download them fromwww.presbyterianwomen.org/missionpledge.

Who receives Mission Pledgepackets?Every PC(USA) congregation receives a 2017Mission Pledge packet (addressed to “PW/Women’s Group”), as do members of theChurchwide Coordinating Team, CelebrationGiving representatives, and moderators, co-moderators and treasurers of PresbyterianWomen in the Synod and Presbytery.

If you know of someone who should have received a packet and did not, you can request one bycalling Presbyterian Distribution Service (PDS) at 800/524-2612 and asking for item PWR16011, or download the packet from www.presbyterianwomen.org/missionpledge. Please also contactPatricia Longfellow, [email protected] 844/797-2872, ext. 8015, to ensure that thePW database contains that person’s contactinformation.

Who should promote giving tothe PW Mission Pledge? Everyone should promote giving to PW! With thatsaid, in many cases a designated leader organizesand promotes PW giving. PW in the Congregations(PWC) use a variety of campaign models—in some,the PWC moderator is responsible for the MissionPledge; in others, the PWC treasurer or a circlemember takes the lead role. Some congregationsalso have a Celebration Giving representative(CGR) who promotes the Mission Pledge and allparts of the PW Celebration Giving program. PWencourages groups, congregations, presbyteries andsynods to use the model that works for them.

Leaders in PW in the Presbytery and Synod (PWPand PWS), please work within your coordinatingteams (CT) to help PWC and PWP leaders andcontacts complete the appropriate pledge form (seepages 7–8). And if you know of PresbyterianWomen who do not currently have a circle, pleaseencourage them to give as individuals and to remainactive in the presbytery and synod.

Why should I encourage givingto the PW Mission Pledge?The simple answer: because nearly every missionand ministry program of PW is supported (in fullor in part) through gifts to the Mission Pledge,PW’s annual fund. Leadership enhancement andtraining, mission partnerships, publishing efforts,justice and peace advocacy and much more are allpossible because of the Mission Pledge. MissionPledge gifts also support your denomination,PC(USA) world mission, and PW’s commonoperating expenses, such as rent, utilities andinformation technology support. You can find moredetailed examples and statistics on how yourMission Pledge dollars are put to work on pages 2and 3 of this packet.

Aseries of promotionalposters about

Presbyterian Womenrecently debuted. Aptlynamed, Think You KnowPW? Think Again!, the two-sided posters in thisseries cleverly challengePW “stereotypes” bydrawing attention to astereotypical view of PWon the front, then, on theback, dismantling thatstereotype with anotherphoto and a description of all that PW does.

The aim of the series isto topple even the mostentrenched misunder-standing by clearly (andhumorously) showing whowe are, Whose we are andthe amazing things weaccomplish. The posters arestimulating muchconversation about thetruths of PresbyterianWomen and its vitalministry. Visit www.presbyterianwomen.org to view and download the posters.
