SHARE YOUR TRADITIONS

UWF used to be UMW

Didn't we used to call it UMW Sunday?

UWF Sunday Traditions


Does your church observe a UWF Sunday?

It can be a wonderful way to celebrate your local group's dedication to mission or honor members. It is always a way for others to learn about what United Women in Faith - our missions and activities, our opportunities for spiritual growth and fellowship!


Traditions differ and we hope you will share about your UMW / UWF Sunday traditions here! Your traditions may inspire others!
