SUMMARY OF SOUTH EAST DISTRICT UMW ANNUAL GATHERING
The highlight of the South East District UMW Annual Gathering held October 5 at Delavan UMC, was the celebration, led by Rev. Grace Cajiuat, of UMW’s 150 years of work in missions. It was a remarkable sight to see about 60/70 women marching around the sanctuary waving signs demonstrating the benefits of being a UMW member and singing We Are Marching in the Light of God. Even more remarkable is what UMW has managed to achieve in Wisconsin in those 150 years: Northcott Neighborhood House and United Methodist Children’s Services in Milwaukee and Harbor House Crisis Shelter in Superior. Donations from UMW units’ fundraisers around the state help to support these missions.
UMW READING PROGRAM
The books selected for the 2020 UMW Reading Program are House in the Sky (Education for Mission), Feathered (Leadership Development), Tilly and the Crazy Eights (Nurturing for Community), Midnight Teacher (Social Action), Working Class Rage (Spiritual Growth). These books will be available in the UMW Reading Program section of the church library in November. For details about the UMW Reading Program, please contact Gwenda Szczygielski at gm53151@wi.rr.com or after the church service on Sunday mornings.
