Our CUMC UMW is off on a new adventure!  We started 3 new circles in the fall.  Our scrapbook circle meets twice a month, the 2nd & 4th Thursdays.... make a resolution and join us to create fabulous memories with your photos!  Our craft circle also started.  We have crocheted and made jewelry so far.  We meet on the 1st Tuesday of the month (check the calendar for dates, place & time).  Last, but not least, we started dancing.  Salsa, disco, cha-cha-cha and more.  This group meets on the 4th Thursday at 7.  This group will help you lose some of those holiday pounds.  Our Book club continues to meet on the last Tuesday of the month, check the calendar for times and books. Don't forget about Sunlight, Starlight and Candlelight circles, they are all working to support the goals of United Methodist Women.

We created these new groups to serve the women of our church and community better. Please take advantage of these new opportunities and come join us.

One of our goals is to be a Mission Today Unit. For more information about these goals visit Mission Today.

Another goal is to participate in the Reading Program. For information about this program visit UMW Reading Program. Our UMW has a lot of the recommended books. We will have books available at General Meetings. Call Elizabeth Nelson to get a book and get started reading!
