United Methodist Women
RAEFORD UNITED METHODIST WOMEN
We are an organization of women dedicated to mission for women, children and youth. For the past few years, we’ve been celebrating the 150th anniversary of United Methodist Women. From a small classroom for six girls in Lucknow, India, we have grown, providing for 288 national and international projects and partners.
Locally, we provide Bereavement Meals for families and friends, help with our school partners and sponsor enrichment activities through the UMW Reading Program, Mission u studies, and all-together meetings.
Please join us, as we put faith, hope and love into action!
