UNITED WOMEN IN FAITH SOUTHEASTERN JURISDICTION

WHO WE ARE..... As a ministry of The United Methodist Church, we provide spiritual formation, leadership development, and worship opportunities for all throughout the Southeastern Jurisdiction and beyond. We believe that informed, trained, and challenged Christians can bring much-needed transformation to the church and communities all over the world, especially as we look forward to the SEJ Conference 2024 and the Southeastern Jurisdictional Conference 2024. 

United Methodist Women's predecessor organizations established social service programs across the United States at the turn of the 20th century in response to the needs of marginalized and vulnerable communities— newly arrived immigrants, freed Blacks, the working poor, and indigenous peoples. Many of these programs survive today as independent, autonomous non-profit agencies referred to as National Mission Institutions. Located across the United States, the United Methodist Women National Office assists these organizations through grants, technical support, and member involvement, particularly within the Southeastern Jurisdiction UMC.

There are 30 National Mission Institutions within the Southeastern Jurisdiction that are empowering women, caring for children, educating youth, housing the neglected, advocating for social justice issues, creating economic opportunities, and changing neighborhoods, reflecting the mission of the Southeast Jurisdiction UMC.
