She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
Proverbs 31:25
United Women in Faith has a stated purpose that the group "be a community of women whose purpose is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; to develop a creative, supportive fellowship, and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church". Our Women in Faith unit meets monthly for prayer, to discuss service opportunities and to plan for church events. Please see the link below to learn more about United Women in Faith.
We welcome any woman of the church to join with us in Christian service to others.
