UNITED METHODIST WOMEN


Who are United Methodist Women?  We are a Faith community.  We are a creative, supportive community in which to Grow and change, and one in which Prayers lead to Action.  The church needs women organized for the empowerment of women and children.  The world needs women organized for mission.  United Methodist Women offers a strong foundation of faith, hope and love in action and this is who we are.

ATTENTION HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS

You may or may not know that in the past, Southport United Methodist Church has been able to offer a small scholarship to assist with college expenses.   The scholarship was made possible by some past members of SUMC:   Mary & Riley Lynch. We haven’t been able to offer the scholarship for a few years but are able to do so again. If you are interested or want more information, please contact Pastor Doug in the church office.
