Emma Clemens and her family were long time members of Leesburg Presbyterian Church.  Emma Clemens  taught school in the area and led one of the circles for many years.  Because of Emma Clemens service to this church and the community, a group of women of the church suggested a circle be named in Emma's honor and service.  It is told that when Emma was approached regarding this acknowledgement, she said "It is nice to get your kudos while your still alive!"  Thus the name Emma Clemens Circle.

When you have a moment, see the lovely quilt hanging on the wall in the Memorial Lounge (see below).  The quilt was stitched by individual members of the Emma Clemens Circle - many of whom still attend this church.

Our circle meets the first Wednesday of every month at 7:30 PM.  We meet at the church and at members homes.  Look for the monthly information in the weekly church bulletins and the monthly newsletters.  We welcome one and all to our Emma Clemens Circle.  For more information, please contact Faye Vance.
