About This Issue
Vocation

God doesn't call the qualified; God qualifies the called. And we ae all called, whatever our age and circumstance. During this Lent/Easter season, Horizons invites you to listen to the Holy Spirit's whisper, to reflect on where God is leading you and to move forward into God's future with confidence.

How to Use This Magazine

Horizons is the magazine of Presbyterian Women. It is planned and designed for individuals and PW circles, newcomers and longtime participants in the organization. You'll notice resources are scattered throughout the magazine—in sidebars, boxes and sometimes entire articles—because Presbyterian Women is made up of leaders, both current leaders and women with leadership potential. Participants in Presbyterian Women are also active—in their congregation, community and world—so we work to include ways you can respond to what you read in Horizons.

The purpose of Horizons magazine is the same as the purpose of our publisher, Presbyterian Women:

Forgiven and freed by God in Jesus Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit we commit ourselves:

to nurture our faith through prayer and
Bible study
to support the mission of the church worldwide
to work for justice and peace
to build an inclusive, caring community of women that strengthens the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and witnesses to the promise of God's kingdom
