Purpose of United Methodist Women
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 support fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.
A major benefit of the UMW is the fellowship and support of a community of caring women at Saint Mark who make up this group. There are seven circles that meet each month, September – May/June. See the schedule in the right column.
The UMW also cares for our congregation by providing bereavement receptions/meals to church family members who have lost a loved one. See the schedule in the right column.
Come and visit the UMW Circle meetings and events!
Due to COVID, UMW Circles are meeting via Zoom.
