Our Purpose
The organized unit
of 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 t he global ministries of the church.
Who is a member?
A member of United

Being a member
of the United Methodist Church is not required nor is there any
minimum age requirement. Out of a commitment for mission
locally and globally with women, children and youth, United
Methodist Women choose to participate in meetings, prayer, financial
giving, study, action and service.
United
Methodist Women is a community of women who nurture and encourage
one another in their spiritual growth, personal leadership and
transformation. As a member, you accept the challenge to
expand concepts of mission.
