Our Events...

Throughout the year we hold various events to support our mission to see women and men flourishing in leadership in the Presbyterian Church. Check out our videos page for past events. The most recent event is detailed below…

FILM Premier:
Equal to Rule

Trevor Morrow has produced two short films to celebrate the centenary of women’s ordination in PCI. The films are dedicated to the 1,000+ women elders serving Christ in the church today. 

 

Part 1 sets the decision of 1926 in its historical and missional contact. Part 2 gives a biblical basis for the policy of the church.

Our Mission Statement:

Our mission is to encourage women and men in their shared calling to lead in the Presbyterian Church in Ireland (PCI).

We seek to:

  • INFORM by providing a space to explore the biblical and theological rationale for the PCI’s position on equality in leadership, through organised events and the collation of helpful literature and online resources;
  • SUPPORT through prayer and fellowship those serving in leadership in the PCI, including those discerning a call to become a teaching or ruling elder;
  • CONNECT with one another, so we might affirm and celebrate those who have been called to service by the grace of God.

In all this, it is our desire to maintain unity in the Presbyterian Church in Ireland through our shared love of Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Now may the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. (Hebrews 13:20-21)
