Note: United Methodist Women has been transformed and rebranded to United Women in Faith (UWF). Learn more.
The UWF remained active throughout the pandemic closure using virtual meetings and email communication until in-person meetings have now resumed. Contact Debbie Dowling if you would like to get involved.
We have active United Women in Faith (UWF) and United Methodist Men (UMM) units that welcome your participation. Both meet monthly and are involved in activities throughout the month and support local charities.
The UMM and UWF also coordinate and support each other. Both are wonderful small group opportunities to build meaningful relationships in Christian love and commitment.
