The United Women in Faith are committing to even greater inclusivity by inviting women of all Christian faiths to join the 150+ years of tradition of fostering spiritual growth, developing leaders, and advocating for justice for women, children, and youth. Most importantly, we are a Sisterhood of women who know God, follow Jesus, and experience joy through service to others in order to change the world.

Members have raised up to $13 million of the $30 million budget each year for programs and projects related to women, children, and youth in the United States and in more than 100 countries around the world.

In 2022, United Women in Faith at Christ United Church raised roughly $18,000 for local, national, and international mission efforts and agencies in addition to contributing many hours of devoted service. You can participate through financial gifts and/or hands-on service with national and local organizations. 

United Women in Faith has been challenging social injustice for more than 150 years. In its advocacy efforts, United Women in Faith adheres to the denominational mandates in the Book of Discipline and Book of Resolutions of The United Methodist Church, while we commit to even greater action and input. We remain women of passion and power, united by God's love in our mission to support women, children, and youth.
