Saint Luke UMC understands the importance of offering a variety of ministry opportunities for women in the church and in the community. Women provide strong and vital leadership in the life of the church. Here at Saint Luke we continue to seek new ways to support women of all ages. Please check the church calendar and events pages for details and contact info.
A few highlights of our women's ministries include:
The Women's Events and Retreats Committee plans special programs and activities with women in our church and community, such as the popular Vintage Christmas evening and themed Day Apart Retreats.
United Women In Faith have several Circles that meet regularly for devotion time, fellowship, and to plan mission activities and other ministry opportunities. Annually, we join with the United Methodist Men for a church-wide Christmas dinner and celebration.
Jesus With A Twist usually meets every fourth Thursday at 6:30 PM at Libations 139, a local bistro in Sanford. Women of all ages gather for food, fellowship, and a short devotion. Robin Showalter coordinates this wonderful ministry. Check the calendar of events for the complete schedule.
Marigold and Rose Ministry is a mentoring ministry with young and "seasoned" women, with a focus on building deeper relationships. Young women are paired with older women and they connect for support, conversation, meals, prayer needs, or special occasions. The entire group enjoys quarterly gatherings with special programs, fun, fellowship, and refreshments.
