UMW Reading Program
Purpose
The purpose of the Reading Program is to encourage United Methodist Women:
-
- to expand the understanding and participation in God's mission
- to increase sensitivity to all human beings - their needs, interests, and concerns.
- to encourage critical thinking about issues facing humanity today
- to grow in understanding of scripture as it relates to Christian faith in contemporary life
- to enhance self-knowledge and to act from that knowledge
- to strengthen involvement in local and global Christian missions.
