Women

Welcome to our Women's Ministry at BUMC. We seek to connect women with God and each other so that we can grow as disciples of Jesus Christ and serve our community with love. We offer opportunities for friendship, learning and serving.

UWF-logo-reverse

United Women in Faith (UWF) is a sisterhood acting in faith to tackle the hard work of the world without hesitation. UWF's mission is to connect and nurture women through Christian spiritual development, creative fellowship, and education so that they can inspire, influence, and impact local and global communities.

BUMC currently offers three different UWF Circles - or small groups - for women of all ages, and formation of new groups is always encouraged.

We also offer a bimonthly book club that meets on Thursday from 7 to 8:45 p.m. Contact Carol Seador at cseador@yahoo.com to learn about the upcoming books we'll discuss!

Widows Ministry

Real Talk, Real Support

This is a gathering for widows to find a safe place to share in the journey of the path of grief at the loss of their loved one. If you’ve recently entered the uninvited season of widowhood or have walked this path for some time, we would like to invite you to join us.  Please feel free to bring a friend who is also on this grief journey.
