Give to Presbyterian Women
Fellowship of the Least Coin
Fellowship of the Least Coin links prayer and "least coins" in a very significant way, as the least coin becomes the symbol of prayer for peace and reconciliation. It was begun in 1956 by Shanti Solomon of India and continues today as a global ecumenical prayer movement. As the coins, symbolizing prayers, are gathered from around the world, they become a sign of our oneness in the common quest for peace, justice and reconciliation. The least coins become grants for special projects of evangelism, service, ecumenical solidarity, awareness-building among women and relief throughout the world.

The PW mission pledge is also a joyful expression of PW's covenantal relationship to the PC(USA), as the largest share of mission pledge monies goes to the General Assembly mission budget.
