 About this Issue
PW Global Exchange to East and West
Africa
The triennial Global Exchange of Presbyterian
Women is a fact-finding, people-to-people event that focuses
on issues pertinent to women in a particular area of the world.
In October 2002, PW representatives recruited from the 16 synods
traveled to East and West Africa, specifically Ghana and Kenya.
Their theme was also their challenge-Sisters Together: Listening
with Our Hearts-coupled with the charge to share what they heard
upon returning home.
