PUMW: Putting Love into Action

Providence United Methodist Women (PUMW),  a unit of United Women in Faith, believes love in action can change the world. We support missions focusing on women, children, and youth in Charlotte and around the world, and offer women of all ages opportunities for mission outreach, spiritual growth, and social action. You choose the level of involvement that fits your schedule, whether it’s the monthly General Meeting with a guest speaker, smaller, more personal fellowship “Circles” with women of your age and interests, or one of our church, community, and global service projects.

PROVIDENCE UMW HAS A PLACE FOR YOU

We invite you to visit our Circle meetings and our monthly General Meeting, or join us making sandwiches for the Soup Kitchen, volunteering at Dove’s Nest, collecting children’s pajamas, or serving with any of our mission projects. And in the process, we’ll help you make new friends, grow spiritually, and find ways to support women, children, and youth.
