What is United Methodist Women?
UMW is the group of women in each congregation organized for mission. UMW has existed under many different names since 1869. Churches have merged, but all titles have reflected the church into mission partnership with God. Because the United Methodist Church is a connectional church, local units of UMW relate directly to district and conference organizations of UMW and the Women’s Program Division of the General Board of Global Ministries.
Who are the United Methodist Women?
We are women like you . . . women of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds; employed, not employed; housewives; businesswomen; single, married,divorced, young, middle-aged, and older women. We are women committed to mission. The undesignated giving of the United Methodist Women touches the lives of many persons around the world. The total program of UMW is mission — including mission education, spiritual growth, outreach, and action.
The organized unit of United Methodist Women at Trinity holds a luncheon/program meeting on the first Tuesday of each month (except during summer) beginning at 11:45 a.m. in Moor Hall. All women of the church may attend by making a lunch reservation. The fellowship and educational and spiritual growth of the unit meetings may be multiplied by joining one of eight UMW circles which meet once a month in homes or at the church. See the calendar link for Circle meeting dates and locations.
