It’s fitting that February—the month associated with love (hearts and flowers and blooms)—is also the time when Presbyterian women are asked to lovingly support their organization through PW‘s “Do Everything in Love” (DEIL) month. Supporting Presbyterian Women is a very big DEIL!
- D is for denominational. Presbyterian women are fully engaged in all matters of the life of our church and church community.
- E is for ecumenical. From prayer movements like the Fellowship of the Least Coin to advocacy at the United Nations’ Commission on the Status of Women, PW works in many spheres for positive change.
- I is for inclusive. The PW Purpose guides us “to build an inclusive, caring community of women.” That’s why PW groups actively seek to build God’s beloved community, where everyone’s gifts are valued.
- L is for love! Unconditional love. Love in action. Love in connection. Love in faith. Supporting our organization and our siblings in Christ through Presbyterian Women is a faithful response to God’s love for each of us.
Here’s the DEIL (or how to participate)
For the month of February, make a “Do Everything in Love” financial gift. You may give securely online or mail a check (details below).
If you choose to honor an individual with your donation, you can email a digital card or download a card or note to send, which features rose imagery perfect for this symbolic gift! Choose the rose that you prefer and/or consider these traditional associations:
Red (traditionally associated with love)
Yellow (friendship and fun)
Pink (appreciation and gratitude)
White (hope)
