Circles

United Methodist Women have a variety of women's circles and monthly activities in addition to special programs and events throughout the year. Described below are the monthly activities. For more details or specifics of a particular month's program, please check the UMW calendar.

New Circle Chairs Needed

We have noticed that our current circle groups leave out a large group of women. There is a need for new groups, especially ones that cater to women of school age children. We are looking for someone to lead and organize these new circles. If you are interested in chairing a circle or have ideas for one, please contact Lori Chambers at umw@stlukesumc.com.
