UMW 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 the global ministries of the church. 

United Methodist Women provides an opportunity for women of all ages to learn more about worldwide missions while making friendships in small group and large group settings.  

Each year, United Methodist Women help countless charitable organizations, both locally and internationally, by volunteering their time, contributing needed items, and raising money.
