Prayer/Meditation:

Offering:  Here at Westminster, we share our plate 50/50 with an organization whose mission aligns with our values. Our March Share the Plate recipient is The Women’s Resource Center. Their mission is the prevention of domestic violence and providing support service to individuals in Newport and Bristol Counties. Since 1977, the Women’s Resource Center has been a listening ear, a helping hand, and in some cases, a lifeline to individuals experiencing domestic violence. They provide their services to those in need at no charge. The other half of the collection will be used to fund the work of our congregation here at Westminster.
