The Vision

Turning faith, hope and love into action on behalf of women, children and youth around the world.

The Cross & Flame

The cross and flame are ancient symbols of the church and appear on The United Methodist Church emblem.  the cross reminds us to follow in the steps of Jesus in our lives.  The flame originates from Pentecost and resonates – even today – in Paul’s words to Timthy:

“I remind you to stir into flame the gift of God which is within you.” -2 Timothy 1:6.

As United Women in Faith, we give our gift to God with others through mission.

Our emblems remind us of our PURPOSE of growning in our understanding of and willingness to participate in the global ministries of the church.  the overall fluid and free flowing shape of the emblem suggests change and mobility.  Our foremothers were advocates for change; change and growth continue to be at the heart of United Women in Faith’s sisterhood and mission.
