Circles:
An invitation to membership...
To the woman
who finds meaning in her church
and
is drawn to its fellowship,
whose life is packed full of
activity
and obligations,
who struggles with lonelieness
or
a sense of failure,
who juggles jobs and family,
and tries to be faithful to
both,
who wants to combine classroom
study
with significant fellowship
and outreach opportunities,
who seems overburdened with
the
traditional woman's role of
care giver,
who feels she has gifts which
are
wasted or undeveloped,
who wants to be accepted
for who she is,
who needs a supportive community
to affirm her own sense of
purpose and commitment to God...
We invite you to membership in
United Methodist Women.
Our 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.
