The PURPOSE

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 and the United Methodist Church combines the cross and 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 the flame the gift of God which is within you” (2 Timothy 1:6a NEB).
