Mission Tour:  The Southwest Texas Conference UMW sponsored a Mission Tour to tour the missions of the Women's Division and General Board of Global Ministries in the SWTC. The tour will began on April 26, 2007, at the Good Neighbor Settlement House located in Brownsville. From there the tour traveled to Laredo to visit the Holding Institute, then visited Wesley Community Center in Robstown and Corpus Christi. The tour ended in San Marcos with a visit to the Southside Community Center.  Further details are available from Junell Treece, SWTC Mission Coordinator for Education and Interpretation.


District Website: The new district website is well under way. To make this website a success, I need help from women in the district . If you see anything on the site that needs improvement, let me know. If you can think of anything you would like to see here, let me know. This website should be a resource to members as well as a means to show off the wonderful work of UMW. Thanks for your help.
