Celebrating over 150 years of ministry
In 1869 a small group of women in Boston saw the need to send single women as missionaries in order to bring medical aid and educational opportunities to women in other countries. The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society was formed and today United Women in Faith is a global organization who seek to connect and nurture women through Christian spiritual formation, leadership development, creative fellowship and education so that they can inspire, influence and impact local and global communities.
At First United Methodist Church of Olympia, our United Women in Faith fellowship is an active and autonomous organization within the church with a mission emphasis on women, children, and youth. We are women of all ages, with varied lifestyles and experiences, who seek to live as a supportive community. Local and global ministry opportunities are available through fellowship, study, and service, and participation is open to everyone.
Our church building is open Sunday through Thursday by PRIOR Arrangement. Please contact the church office to confirm entrance. Meetings may be unperson or over Zoom. For more information or to obtain the Zoom links, please call Carol Gruen (360-352-9703).
