Women of Faith Awards nominees sought

2003 awards focused on government or other public service

by Jerry L. Van Marter

LOUISVILLE - Nominations are being sought for the 2003 Women of Faith Awards
of the Presbyterian Church (USA).  Deadline for nominations is January 15,
2003.

The focus of the 2003 awards - which will be presented at the annual Women of
Faith Awards Breakfast at next May's 215th General Assembly in Denver - is on
women working in government or other public service. 

This marks the second of a three-year emphasis of awards on the theme
"faith-informed work." In 2002, the awards honored women in business, finance
or economics. In 2004, the award will recognize women in the fields of
science, technology or engineering.

To be considered, a nominee must be living our her Christian vocation as
government worker, civil servant, elected official, diplomat, public policy
advocate, United Nations employee, as a member of a government board, a
theologian addressing issues of civic life, a military chaplain, a public
school teacher, an ethicist, or the like.

A nominee must be a living Presbyterian woman, lay or clergy, who in her life
exemplifies faith in God and commitment to the mission of the PC(USA). 

Award-winners will be chosen by a panel of representatives from groups
related to the Women's Ministries Program Area of the National Ministries
Division.
