United Methodist Women's Statement of 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 wholepersons through Jesus Christ, to develop a creative supportive fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.
Our unit meeting is held the first Thursday of each month at 12 noon for a luncheon (donation) followed by a program and business meeting.  All members of the Unit are encouraged to attend.

We warmly welcome you.  We have a place and a need for everyone.  We hope to see you soon.

The members of the North Platte United Methodist Women cordially invite you to visit any one or more of our groups and learn about the many things we are doing for missions locally, nationally, and internationally.  Groups meet on a regular basis in the morning, afternoon, and evening. 

Each group organizes their own meeting with guest speakers, special programs and more.  We benefit individually by getting to know one another, the church benefits from our work and monetary assistance, and mission projects benefit from our donations.

If you are a woman 

  • who finds meaning in her church and is drawn to its fellowship
  • whose life is packed full of activity and obligations
  • who struggles with loneliness or sense of failure
  • who juggles jobs and family and tries to be faithful to both
  • who wants to combine classroom study with significant fellowship and outreach opportunities
  • who seems overburdened with the traditional women's role of caregiver
  • who feels she has gifts which are wasted or undeveloped
  • who wants to be accepted for who she is
  • who needs a supportive community to affirm her own sense of purpose and commitment to God
then United Methodist Women's group is for you!  We seek to respond to the needs of others by
  • contributing to local service projects
  • hosting condolence dinners for bereaved families
  • donating to world missions through pledges
  • conference and district meetings
  • spiritual life retreats
  • Schools of Christian Mission
  • reading Response and New World Outlook magazine
