Buda churchwomen plan to charter
UMW unit during Nov. 17 ceremony

Austin District United Methodist Women are to charter a new unit at Buda UMC Nov. 17 at 10 a.m.
Buda churchwomen are to join nearly 1 million other UMW members as they seek to fulfill the UMW PURPOSE: “The organized unit of United Methodist Women shall be a community of women whose PURPOSE is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; to develop a creative, supportive fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.”
UMW members raise some $20 million a year for programs and projects related to women, children and youths in the United States and in more than 100 countries around the world.
Pastors at Buda UMC are the Rev. Teresa Welborn and the Rev. Kim Burke. For more information about UMW, contact Margaret Glueck, Austin District UMW president, at (512) 836-3493 or
