Since 1974, women in the PCA have supported an annual love gift to promote denominational connectionalism and demonstrate our corporate helper-design as women in the church. The money is raised in various ways such as donations, fundraisers, etc.

The Women’s Love Gift has blessed committees and agencies such as MNA’s Special Needs Ministries, MTW’s efforts to support the Gonaives, Haiti, Children’s Home, and other such ministries.

Showing the annual Women’s Love Gift in your church does several things: Educates the people in the pew, promotes unity and greater understanding of the PCA, and provides good opportunities for monies to be appropriately channeled to specific ministry needs. Below you will find information on the ministry we are supporting this year.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”7615″ img_size=”full” alignment=”right”][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”7609″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”7604″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1453841605076{padding-right: 17px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”7608″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1453843344401{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]

BASICS OF THE FAITH – STUDY AIDES

[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_column_text]The Basics of the Faith series (published by P&R – each 30-40 pages) are on relevant topics for Christians to study on doctrine, the Christian life, and church related topics. CDM, with the aide of the authors, has written Leader’s Guides to help anyone wanting to lead a study with an individual or group. The student version is designed to be worked through before reading the text and for taking notes during the meeting. If you’re interested in downloading these free resources, select the book you want on the left-hand panel below and then click the links found to the right of the book cover.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”white”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”5912″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”chino”][vc_separator color=”white”][vc_tour][vc_tab title=”How Do We Glorify God?” tab_id=”1425329185920-6-6″][vc_column_text]

A New Connection

by

CDM-staff2FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Committee on Christian Education and Publications Receives New Name

Houston, Texas – June 18, 2014 – The 42nd General Assembly approved a name change for the Committee on Christian Education and Publications (CEP) which will now be known as the Committee on Discipleship Ministries (CDM).  “For a number of years, we have considered making a change to our name to better convey the relational aspects of our ministry. In discussing the many options, we kept returning to our biblical charter – make disciples” said Coordinator, Stephen Estock.

Estock went on to emphasize the new name more closely connects our work to the Great Commission. Obeying Jesus’ command in today’s world involves education and resources like publications, but also much more. The content of the gospel must be conveyed in relationships that are empowered by the truth of the gospel. “Discipleship” encompasses all of what it means to walk with Christ, and “making disciples” includes personally inviting others to know Christ and coming alongside them in relationship.

The 42nd General Assembly directed the Stated Clerk to make the necessary editorial amendments to the Book of Church Order and Rules of Assembly Operation and the CDM staff will work [in the coming weeks] to inform PCA churches and members of the change.  Questions may be directed to the CDM office at cdm@pcanet.org
