VINEVILLE UNITED METHODIST WOMEN

 

Vineville United Methodist Women has a long rich history and heritage. 
Our members are involved in all facets of the Church and
give support to its programs.  We have circles composed of varying age
groups and  interests. 

 

Membership in United Methodist Women is voluntary and open to all women who are committed to mission.  However, membership is not automatic.  Membership can be expressed in many ways.  Some examples are:

  • attendance at meetings
  • mission giving to support global mission
  • intercessory prayer
  • participation in the Reading Program
  • participation in varied events, projects, issues and concerns of United Methodist Women
  • accepting leadership responsibility
  • reading Response
  • attending the School of Christian Mission.

At Vineville, United Methodist Women are finding involvement not only valuable to others, but personally fulfilling and fun.

 

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.

 
    “Let’s Get Together!”
        2010 Program Theme for U.M.W.
 
 
          Our God is a community-making God. Our mission together as United Methodist Women is to create beloved communities with women, children and youth.
 
          “Let’s get together” and renew our commitment to local communities and to those in other countries.
 
          “Food and Faith” is the 2010 spiritual growth study in which some of our circles will be participating. This study explores how our faith is nurtured, strengthened, and enhanced by food and all the ways food touches our lives. Food is never far from a gathering of the faithful!
 
          “Giving Our Hearts Away: Native American Survival” is a general mission study for 2009-2010. This is for UMW members interested in the history, culture and ongoing challenges of the first people of the United states.
 
          “The Beauty and Courage of Sudan: Why a Dream of Peace is Possible” is also the geographical mission study for this year. It is a picture of Sudan’s spirit of courage and the hope that they will realize their dream of peace.
