GOD WILL DO WONDERS AMONG YOU

 

The theme of this summer's Churchwide Gathering of Presbyterian Women is taken from the book of Joshua, our Bible study for this year.

Then Joshua said to the people, “Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.”~ Joshua 3:5

Over 2,000 women gathered in Louisville for several days of thinking, talking, and praying about the wonders of creation, grace, discipleship, mission, hope, and God. We heard about God's work in the world, and among us: work we are doing to alleviate human suffering, to stop human trafficking (enslavement of vulnerable people), to work for justice and peace, and to connect with and support Christians around the world.

This year's Bible study, Joshua: A Journey of Faith, is written by a woman of the Middle East. Mary Mikhael is an elder in the Presbyterian Church in Beirut, Lebanon. She is a graduate of Haigazian University and the Near East School of Theology (NEST). She holds a master of Christian education degree from the Presbyterian School of Christian Education (now Union PSCE) and a doctor of education degree from Columbia University and Union Theological Seminary. She has served on the faculty of NEST since 1984, and has served as president of NEST since 1994.
