Together
WHO CAN WE BE TOGETHER? It takes a congregation for a successful mission response.
Ladies! Are you feeling the urge to meet, greet, and network with other ladies at Northfield UMC? Has God touched you to take action on something He is calling you to do? Is your soul yearning for something but you know not what? United Women in Faith would be open to planning programs or even starting a grouping of younger women of the church at a time, place, with interests you have.
Multigenerational
United Women in Faith want to meet women of different generations where they are in their lives; and to consciously build connections/relationships with each other. We will help find other ladies in church to make those connections. Begin by meeting at church coffee time with someone you do not know. We strive to help make Northfield UMC a place of hospitality and inclusion. All women are invited to meet in groups of like interests and faith formation. We have Esther Circle and Mugs and Muffins who have standing invitations to join them. There is a women’s Bible study and a women’s sewing/quilting group. See yourself in a different group of ladies but do not know how to make it happen? Contact Catherine Williams, UWF president, Pastor Rachel, or anyone on the UWF Executive Board. Lin Wolf, Lynn Gryc, Thalia Duffield, Dorothy Orde, Linda Betzold to name a few.
Vision Statement

We need to take care of ourselves to better care for others.
