Purpose
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.
Mission
The mission of the Women's Division is to build a supportive community among women; to be an advocate for the oppressed and dispossessed with special attention to the needs of women and children; and to engage in activities that foster growth in the Christian faith, mission education, and Christian social involvement throughout the organization.
