Some Meanings Found in the
Presbyterian Women Symbol
Forgiven and Freed by God in Jesus Christ
Forgiven and freed by grace through faith, the central figure
stands in praise.
And Empowered by the Holy Spirit, We Commit
Ourselves:
Rooted in faith, the trio of women emerges. The outline of
the central figure forms a cross. We are Presbyterian women,
engrafted in Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is no
longer we who live, but Christ who lives in us.
To Nurture Our Faith Through Prayer and Bible Study
The right figure holds a book to guide her reading, studying,
praying or meditating.
To Support the Mission of the Church Worldwide
The left figure reaches out to care for others as she shares,
nurtures, and heals. The circle represents the church
worldwide, where women offer their gifts and talents in the
midst of the global community.
To Work for Justice and Peace
The uplifted arms of the central figure reach out to embrace
a just peace for the world. The relationship between the three
figures depicts lives of wholeness rather than turmoil.
And to Build an Inclusive, Caring Community of Women.
The three women have no distinct features and represent all
women. The shapes surrounding them express energy,
strength and openness.
That Strengthens the Presbyterian Church USA
Our name, Presbyterian Women, ties us to our
denomination. The bible resembles the bible depicted in the
PC (USA) seal.
And Witnesses to the Promise of God’s Kingdom
Guided by our purpose, we witness to the reality of God’s
realm.
