UNITED METHODIST WOMEN

The PURPOSE of United Methodist Women: The organized unit of United Methodist Women shall be 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.

THE EMBLEM: The official emblem for United Methodist Women, as well as for The United Methodist Church, combines the cross and the flame. The cross and flame are ancient symbols of Christ and Pentecost. The shape of the emblem is fluid and free flowing, suggesting change and mobility.

".....I now remind you to stir into flame the gift of God which is within you." II Timothy 1:6 NEB

Our heritage is one of sacrifice, witness, and service. The emblem serves as a continuing reminder of both opportunity and obligation.
