United Methodist Women
The organized unit of the United Methodist Women shall be a community of women whose purpose is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; to develop a creative supportive fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.
The above is the official mission statement for UMW. At our church many women in many groups carry out this mission. We welcome all women who want to do so to attend any or all of the meetings listed below. They are welcome to join our circles if they choose.
General Meetings--all are welcome. Meetings are usually held once a month.
