Shameless Office Promotion

Remember NNPCW's Top Ten Reasons Why Jesus Loves Feminists? Here are the top ten reasons why you should come to work with us in Women's Ministries of Presbyland:

10.) You'll have great mentoring opportunities with awesome wise women.
9.) You get to go to cool conferences for free.
8.) You get to plan cool conferences for free.
7.) You can pay your respects to Col. Sanders at Cave Hill Cemetary in Louisville, complete with a bucket of KFC chicken.
6.) You can join me in crashing the hottest Presbyland party-- Worldwide Ministries Division monthly staff meeting.
5.) If you get married or have a baby, we'll throw you an office-sponsored shower (but only if you agree to name your firstborn child Beowulf).
4.) You get to work with me!
3.) You'll have regular sightings of such Presbyterian superstars as Cliff Kirkpatrick and Rick Ufford-Chase. You may even talk to them (after your knees stop knocking).
2.) You work with amazing women around the country.
1.) Three words-- free office food.

Now, I know what you're asking yourself-- where do I sign up? Because these are only a few of the many reasons you'd want to come to 100 Witherspoon to work (the benefits package doesn't hurt, either). Well, my friends, it is very simple. Direct your web wanderings toward www.pcusa.org/onedoor. Click on the position search, and then just enter "Kentucky" as the place where you want a job and "Full-time" as the position type.

When you do this, you'll notice that Women's Ministries is hiring two associates right now-- one for Racial Ethnic Young Women Together and one for Women's Advocacy. If you're interested in gender and racial justice, and if you want to make a positive impact in the lives of women in the church, these are the opportunities for you! The REYWT position will allow a woman of color to work with REYWT on programming opportunities and network building. The Women's Advocacy position will provide a woman the chance to advocate for gender justice in the PC(USA), and interpret the church's gender policies to the outside world.

I hope that God is calling one of you to apply for these positions. It would be great to scavange free food with you!

"And when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left, your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'" --Isaiah 30:21

But what if I want to name my child after another literary figure, say perhaps Don Quixote? Do I still get an office-sponsored baby shower?
