A Little Bit About the UMW

The United Methodist Women, or UMW, is a community of women whose purpose is to know God and experience freedom as women through Jesus Christ.

Members of UMW not only serve in missions and local church support but also experience many opportunities for friendships and spiritual growth. Bi-monthly unit meetings include Bible study and our circles and sub-groups offer a variety of activities from quilting to Bible and book studies, to serving at wedding receptions and much more.
