United Methodist Women

Esther, Martha & Naomi Circles

Who are the United Methodist Women?

The United Methodist Women (UMW) is 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. Asbury has three UMW circles: Esther, Naomi, and Martha.

This circle meets every third Monday at 10:00 a.m. in Room 120/121. Email circle leader Jane Woosley.

This circle meets every first Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. in Room 132/134. Email circle leaders Linda McClellan or Glenda Rogers.

Martha Circle, a United Methodist Women's Circle

This circle meets every second Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. in Room 132/134. Email circle leader June Griffin.

All three United Methodist Women circles meet for hands-on mission work at 10:00 a.m. in Room 120/121 on the second Monday of every month.

After we joined Asbury, I still needed something...I knew I needed to surround myself by women of faith that would be the wind beneath your wings and lift you up and carry you when you did not have the strength to go on. I found all of that in UMW.
