Getting Involved
• 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, supportive fellowship, and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church. Circles meet monthly from September - May with UMW Joint meetings quarterly. In addition to mission involvement, circle members volunteer to assist in setup in serving Wednesday night suppers, assist with Young-At-Heart monthly luncheons and deliver meals on wheels.

May Joint Meeting of UMW

The UMW is holding our joint meeting on Tuesday, May 6th at 6:30 p.m. in the Spears Fellowship Hall. Debbie Turner will be our speaker.

Debbie describes herself, first and foremost, as a servant of Jesus Christ; cleverly disguised as a businesswoman, author and speaker. She has touched thousands of lives with her writing and teaching ministry and her compelling story has been broadcast all over the world on Christian TV and radio programs such as The Harvest Show, Faith Café, It's a New Day and many others. Debbie is the author of two books: Trees Wear Glasses, Don't They? A Call to Faith and Whispered Thunder, Living Within the Sound of God's Voice. 

The Erin Glenn circle is hosting this catered dinner. Circle leaders, call Connie Lee with the number of your members attending. Deadline is April 28th.  If you are not a member of a circle and would like to attend, call Connie Lee at 669-8199.
