WMS 100th Anniversary

The year 2014 is a very important milestone in the history of the Women’s Missionary Society. Three organizations which had evolved from specific missions united on May 14, 1914, to form the Women’s Missionary Society of The Presbyterian Church in Canada. Exactly 100 years from that date, the WMS is planning a celebratory event to mark that occasion at the Sheraton Parkway Hotel (Richmond Hill, ON) from 1–4 pm on May15th, the day before the Gathering. The celebration will begin with a banquet lunch. Plans include special speakers, displays and memorabilia, an entertaining presentation on the WMS history, and more. There will be international guests, former WMS missionaries, and past presidents, to name a few. More information about the program, tickets, and registration will go out to WMS groups and registrants for the Gathering in the Fall. It promises to be a joyous event. Please join us!
