Do "missions" seem far away? We support missions that benefit women, children and youth all around the world. Wesley-Rankin Community Center in West Dallas and Dallas Bethlehem Center in South Dallas are both UWF national mission institutions. Do you know about Jonah Ballesteros? He works for Richardson ISD and is another UWF missionary in our area. Learn more about his work in "Voices from the Field" happening soon. He works in my school district - and I'll be listening and learning too!

TREASURER'S TIP:

Treasurers Tip

EMPTY THE TREASURY!


Reminder: All local UWF units, districts, and conferences should "empty the treasury", retaining only the funds you'll need to get started in January. Plan to send your end-of-year-funds to your District for your Pledge To Mission giving. We have a responsibility to support what we, as United Women in Faith, have already committed.

Contact your District Treasurer if you have any questions.

With God's help, we are the love in action that is changing the world!
