United Church Women
To unite women of the congregation for the total mission of the church and to provide a medium through which we may express our loyalty and devotion of Jesus Christ in Christian witness, study, fellowship and service.
Any woman “willing to contribute her prayers, gifts, and services for the work of the Church” may join the United Church Women (UCW). Along with providing important networking and social bonding opportunities, the UCW has led discussions on, for example, feminism and restorative justice. Indeed, says former Moderator Jordan Cantwell, United Church Women are the “hands and feet” of the church.
