Co-Moderator or the Kirk office. Presbyterian Women's CirclesA Circle is a group of women who meet for fellowship, Bible study and service. What Happens During a Typical Circle Meeting? Members meet and greet each other, catch up with each other's lives, and enjoy yummy snacks. The group takes care of business -- this might include hearing news from the Presbyterian Women's Council or planning a service project such as serving a dinner at the Ark. Someone leads a Bible study lesson. Members share good news, sad news, and prayers. The various outreach programs include Meals on Wheels, Dorcas Shop, and the Ark. Circles meet once a month, September through May, and last about two hours. Most circles provide child care at the Kirk during meetings. Members who bring children are asked to donate an extra $1 per child per meeting. A variety of circles are offered, some during the day, some at night. One also offers more intensive Bible study.
