El proyecto impulsado por la Iglesia Presbiteriana de Puerto Nuevo, en San Juan, Puerto Rico, no solo ha transformado la dinámica interna de la congregación, sino que también ha dejado huellas en otras iglesias y denominaciones de la isla.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — In the heart of Puerto Nuevo, a Presbyterian congregation has taken a bold step toward inclusion and renewal by opening the pulpit to laywomen—recognizing their calls, their voices, and their leadership in the life of the church.
You are invited to join the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship (CICW) in a year of dwelling in the Psalms—the prayerbook and songbook of the Bible. Together, the 150 psalms guide Christian worshipers through the full range of human emotions and experiences, making space for communities to practice praise and lament, to ask questions and find words of comfort, and so much more. Our work at CICW over the years has connected us to many people engaging in thoughtful and imaginative work around the psalms. We are eager to build on those connections and encourage more new and ancient ways to dwell in the psalms.
