United Methodist Women

We are a community of women whose purpose is to know God and in so doing, express His love through our fellowship and service.

We participate in local, regional, and global mission projects. Our membership is open to any woman who indicates her desire to belong.

Some of us choose to become members of one of our six circles, which meet monthly. Each circle is a mirror that in its own unique way reflects the sisterhood, spiritual development and charity of the St. John‘s United Methodist Women. Whether Circle members or not, we are all General Members of St. John’s United Methodist Women. Circle and general meetings are open to any who choose to attend, without special invitation.

Please call Linda Barr, Membership and Outreach Chairperson at 215-773-9865, or Arlene Williams, Vice-President, at 215-355-0162 for further information. We hope to hear from you and look forward to the opportunity to warmly welcome you to St. John’s United Methodist Women.

 

GENERAL MEETINGS

In September we gather for a meal of delicious breakfast casseroles. We usually have a guest speaker who represents a mission focus or spiritual growth message, as well as an update on happenings in the larger UMW organization.

In December we host a cookie exchange where participants prepare plates of cookies for our shut-ins, a Christmas devotion, and installation of officers who are on our St. John’s UMW mission team.

In February we gather for breakfast and a Lenten devotion. Pastor Janice serves Communion.

Our “Spring Banquet” is held in May. The dinner is “potluck”. An entertaining program is planned.

All of our general meetings are open to all the women of the church and their friends.
