Presbyterian Women Shenandoah
Linda Roller Livick, Moderator

April 2008
Betty Blue Miller, Editor

From the Moderator:                                            
Dear Presbyterian Women:
 
The past two years as your Moderator have been so rewarding and have made me feel so blessed in so many ways. I have enjoyed getting to know so many of you and have been so pleased to visit in so many of your churches.  Thank you for letting me serve the Lord in this manner.
 
We have had a wonderful CT and each of these ladies have done such a fine job and have been so helpful to me.  My thanks and appreciations go to each of you for sharing your special talents and gifts with our Presbytery.
 
We have made some changes to our PW by-laws and have added Horizon and Celebration Committees to our CT team.  A number of our churches have celebrated 20 years of being Presbyterian Women.  We have supported our mission work at home and abroad.  We have continued our support of the Baja and Ethiopia projects and with Living Waters and Katrina disaster missions and our own Massanetta Springs.  We as Presbyterian Women have given our time, money and our help to do God's work.  We have done a good job.
 
Our PW is strong in the Shenandoah Presbytery and we will continue to grow in our Faith and our work for the Lord.
 
Thank you for the opportunity to work with each of you.  I know you will continue your support of the new Moderator and the CT.  I keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

 
Love and God Bless,

Linda Roller Livick, Moderator
Shenandoah Presbyterian Women

PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN OF SHENANDOAH PRESBYTERY celebrated their

motto, This Far By Faith.
    Moderator Linda Livick called the meeting to order and welcomed those in attendance which included PW’S, guests and exhibitors. Vice Moderator Darlene Mason called the roll of Mission Communities. Worship and Resources member-at large, Mary Lou Cox led devotions. After the report of the Search Committee, the election was held and Mrs. Cox installed the newly elected officers and those continuing were recognized. Guest speaker for the day was the Rev. Sally Robinson who also led the communion service.
    Mrs. Elaine Quick, Leadership Coordinator of Highland/Augusta Mission Community was presented the Presbyterian Women Life Membership. She “tends” her flock” of PW’S in two Mission Communities and also, serves as pianist at Gatherings. She is a busy lady and dedicated Christian.
    Mrs. Miriam (Mimi) Moring of Swoope, VA , after serving as Moderator Elect the past year, assumed the position of Moderator of Shenandoah Presbyterian Women. She is a very dedicated Christian and has very good leadership skills. She retired after a twenty five year career in marketing and advertising. She works part-time for the various Edward Jones Investment offices in the area. She volunteers for Habitat for Humanity, works with the Ethiopian Partnership Committee, and has served on the iCare committee for the orphanage in Gore since its beginning. She is a very busy person who seems to “like it that way.”
Mimi and her husband Richard are parents of four children and grandparents of seven. Hobbies include gardening, cooking, photography, stain glass and tennis.  
  
A TRIBUTE TO A VERY SPECIAL PRESBYTERIAN WOMAN
    Linda Roller Livick has served the PW for the past three years. One year was the office of Moderator-Elect and then two more as MODERATOR.  This is a position of great responsibility but Linda gave of her time and talents to lead this group, not only in the duties of the position on the Coordinating Team, but offering personal caring and love to each. She is a very sincere and dedicated Christian. Her love of God and the Lord Jesus and His Church, shines forth with unwavering faith.  SHE WILL BE MISSED on the PWCT, but we are sure she will still be serving her Lord.
