Virginia United Methodist Women

United Methodist Women is the largest denominational faith organization for women with approximately 800,000 members around the world whose mission is fostering spiritual growth, developing leaders and advocating for justice.

We have members in local units across the Virginia Conference.  These units are all sizes: from units in small, rural churches, to units  in large, urban churches with multiple "circles".  Our membership is intergenerational, from exciting new circles for elementary age girls, high school and college young women to circles that include long time members age 100+, and everything in between!  No matter the size of the local unit, or the age of its members, ALL represent women organized for mission, and committed to the purpose of United Methodist Women.

United Methodist Women is 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.
