UMW Assembly 2010

Faith · Hope · Love in Action

United Methodist Women assemble every four years to celebrate, to lift up, to learn, and to return to their communities better equipped for mission. Tens of thousands of women have been meeting in this fashion since 1942 in a unified effort to stay at the forefront of the work being done both locally and globally, both systemically and in charity, to improve and sustain the lives of women, children and youth.

Assembly 2010 has been themed: Faith. Hope. Love in Action. Chosen because it encapsulates the 140 year history of United Methodist Women, it says everything about what is happening on the ground today, and is the momentum for decades to come. Faith. Hope. Love in Action is the energy that moves through each woman that has pledged her time for service through United Methodist Women.

General Information
In May, St. Louis usually has mildly warm weather, so please dress appropriately. Remember to wear comfortable walking shoes for exploring the exciting Experience Hall, Mission Resource Center's many resources and the St. Louis area. Every effort is made to reduce long waiting periods, but with so many United Methodist Women in one place, lines are unavoidable. Please use this time for fellowship and reunion with your neighbors.
Please come with faith, hope, and love in action to Assembly 2010 in St. Louis!
