Purpose of the UMW

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 the concepts of missions through participation in the global ministries of the church.

The UMW is world wide. As United Methodist Women, we are disciples of Jesus Christ. We are called to share our faith, hope, and love throughout the world – we are women with a mission.

For more information on getting involved in UMW, please contact Margaret Thornton – 423-587-6987.
