BECOMING A MEMBER
How does one become a member of the United
Methodist Women? There are different entry points to our
organization:
1. Local Member—A woman may become a member at a
local unit based in a local church.
2. District Member—A woman may become a district
member if there is no active unit in her church or if
there is no possibility of continuing or reorganizing a
unit. Such membership must be authorized by the district
Executive Committee. If you are interested please
contact the Mission Coordinator for Membership, Nurture
and Outreach.
3. District Unit Member—A unit may be formed by women
from different churches who meet in a location other
than a local church. The President of a district unit
shall be a member of the United Methodist Church.
4. Online Member—A woman may be a member of the
organization through registration and participation in
the Women’s Division’s Online Community at
www.umwonline.org
A NOTE ABOUT DISTRICT MEMBERS
In a few churches, the membership of
the congregation is so small that there is no
unit of United Methodist Women. In this case,
a woman can ask to become a district member
of United Methodist Women by contacting the
president of the district Executive Committee.
As a district member, she relates directly
to the district organization of United
Methodist Women.
The district Executive Committee
informs her of district meetings and
other training and enrichment events such as
workshops, retreats, and Schools of Christian
Mission. She may make an annual pledge or
Gift to Mission through the District Treasurer,
subscribe to Response magazine, and obtain
other resources produced to United Methodist
Women.
