We invite you to explore how you can share the gifts that are within you. Too busy to join a UMW Circle but feel called to serve? Do you have 10-12 hours a year to serve God in Christian mission? Cannot attend meetings but would like to pledge and participate in planned events when possible? Then you can join as a UMW member-at-large and choose how and when you serve.
