United Methodist Women’s History Month

During March, we celebrate Women’s History Month. This site will be honoring the historic United Methodist women. It helps us to be better stewards of the gained privileges in our time in how our church got to where it is today. One will notice that our church has still far to go.
For more details about these monumental women, click their name or picture.

United Methodist Women, a venerable Methodist women's mission agency for more than 150 years, announced March 3, 2022 that it has rebranded itself United Women in Faith in hopes of attracting new, younger members and surviving the denomination's decline and fall.
