United Methodist WomenThe Purpose:The organized unit of the United Methodist Women shall be a community of women whose purpose is: To know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; To develop a creative, supportive fellowship; And to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the Church. The Emblem:
The official emblem for United Methodist Women as well
as for the United Methodist Church combines the cross and the flame. The cross and
flame are ancient symbols of Christ and Pentecost. The shape of the emblem is fluid
and free flowing, suggesting change and mobility. ". . . I now remind you to
stir into flame the gift of God which is within you." (II Timothy 1:6 NEB).
Our heritage is one of sacrifice, witness, and service. The emblem serves as a
continuing reminder of both opportunity and obligation.
