The Women of Faith (formerly United Methodist Women) are 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. Fall through Spring, monthly general meetings are held for ALL women and once a month there are 2 smaller groups of women who meet for learning, service, and support.

If you haven’t seen it, there is a blessing box, holding food and personal items along with a place for prayer requests, located at the end of the sidewalk on the east end of the Learning Center.

“Take what you need, leave what you can” is the mission of this box and everyone is invited to stop by and put items in the box even when we are not collecting specifically for our supply. And if you or someone you know is in need, PLEASE stop by and pick up a few things or direct them to the resource. This is a ministry of love, meeting a physical need in our community.

Each year, Mt. Moriah UMC works through the Child Focus organization to identify local families in need. For the families we support, Child Focus provides us with a tailored list of gift suggestions for each child in the family. Our goal is to purchase clothing, shoes, undergarments, diapers, coats (if needed) and toys for each child. Additionally, a generous monetary gift to be used for the purchase of food and household goods, as well as a Bible, are provided to each family.
