United Women in Faith (formerly known as United Methodist Women) is the only official organization for women within The United Methodist Church (UMC). In 2022, United Methodist Women began doing business as United Women in Faith[1] (UWFaith). Founded in 1869, the organization now has nearly half a million members.[2] UWFaith offers all Methodist women opportunities for spiritual growth, leadership development, transformative education and service and advocacy.[3] Its current advocacy priorities are climate justice and racial justice, including ending criminalization of communities of color and mass incarceration.[4]
