2009 Goals---Who's At the Table?

 

"Who's at the Table?"---What a great theme this is for the United Methodist Women's Program Book!!!  I say that not because we like to eat a lot and not because we want to cook a lot, but rather because it emphasizes the importance of overcoming divisions in our society, be it divisions of age, race, income, ethnicity, or education.   We are called to welcome and engage all women!  Let us commit to:

 

·         strengthen the work and faith of our UMW members

·         learn and experience more about our relationship to God through personal experiences and relationships with each other and in our mission work

·         offer the same hospitality to others as God extends to us in mercy, generosity and steadfast love

·         explore our gifts, graces, challenges and passions and what it means to be in community with women of the world today

·         share in the celebration of the Body of Christ, alive and working in our experiences today

·          renew our efforts in the mission of United Methodist Women with women, children and youth
