United Women
in Faith
Trinity’s UWF
The Trinity unit of United Women in Faith 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.
Since January 1946 women at Trinity have worked together to put faith into action through prayer, giving, study, and service. Whether our work directly benefited Trinity or was part of our mission service to women, children and youth, our goal has been to respond in a useful way for the glory of God.
United Women in Faith (formerly United Methodist Women) is the only official women’s organization of the United Methodist Church. Check out the new website for news, current events and videos of the history and women who figured predominately in the early history, and many helpful tools.
