The organized unit
of the United Methodist Women is a community of women whose
purpose is to know God; to develop a creative, supportive fellowship;
and to expand concepts of mission through participation in
the global ministries of the church.
Special events organized by the Trinity UMW include a brunch and
fashion show in the Spring for all ladies of Trinity, host the UMW
District Prayer Breakfast in March, sponsor a spiritual retreat in the
Fall for all ladies of Trinity and their friends, celebrate UMW on UMW
Sunday and celebrate Christmas together with a dinner in Wesley Hall with
members bringing toys for the children in the Upper Sand Mountain Parish.
UMW members are also supportive to the children at Seminole Service Center
by furnishing Easter baskets, Halloween candy and prizes for games and
sending hats, gloves and socks at Christmastime. |
