Purpose

United Methodist Women and the Women's Division, though inter-related, have two distinct purposes set by the General Conference of The United Methodist Church, the legislative-making body of the denomination.

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.

The Women's Division shall be actively engaged in fulfilling the mission of Christ and the Church and shall interpret the purpose of United Methodist Women.  With continuing awareness of the concerns and responsibilities of the Church in today's world, the Women's Division shall be an advocate for the oppressed and dispossessed with special attention to the needs of women and children; shall work to build a supportive community among women; and shall engage in activities that foster growth in the Christian faith, mission education, and Christian social involvement.

Please come join us on the first Wednesday at noon of every month to be part of this mission!

UMW is part of General Board of Global Ministries
