Who are we?

Formally known as United Methodist Women, we are a community of women whose purpose is to know God; 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.

Driven by God’s love and united in sisterhood, we work to improve the lives of women, children and youth. Every day, we show up. We take action. We get it done.

And WE INVITE YOU to join us and serve beside the women of Horne Memorial UMC!

We believe love in action can change the world.
