United Women in Faith
The United Women in Faith (UWF) is made up of women of our church. All women are welcome to join. The Wrightsville UWF support ministries advocating for women, youth, and children in need within our local community and district. This group works to build a supportive community among women, engage in activities that foster growth in the Christian faith, mission education, and Christian social involvement. Currently, the Wrightsville UWF supports the following ministries:
- The Methodist Home for Children
- Wilmington Domestic Violence Shelter
- WUMC Campus Ministries
- Harbor District’s Annual Pledge to Mission
- Step Up Wilmington
- Coastal Horizons Center
- A Safe Place
- A.R.M.
The UWF consists of “circles,” or small groups who meet monthly. The time and place of circle meetings vary depending on the circle, but all meet for a time of planning and fellowship. While each circle has their own small projects, outreach programs, education programs, and fellowship goals, all circles work together to support the WUWF “Do Three Things Well” campaign to raise money for annual ministries mentioned above. The “Do Three Things Well” campaign includes:
- Annual Gifts to Mission
- Low Country Boil
- Annual Cookie Walk
The Wrightsville UWF currently has four active circles.
