WOMEN'S MINISTRY

WHO WE ARE

Some of the most important things in life happen

when women gather together.

United Women in Faith at First United Methodist Church Waxahachie is a place where women of all ages and all stages of life come to connect, grow, and support one another. We laugh together, pray together, dig into scripture together, and show up for each other in the everyday moments that matter most.

We believe faith grows richer in community — and that every woman who walks through the door brings something the rest of us need.

MINISTRIES

Through our women's ministry program at FUMC, we connect and nurture women through Christian spiritual formation, leadership development, creative fellowship, and education so they can inspire, influence, and impact local and global communities. United Women in Faith is the umbrella organization that houses all our Women's Ministry programs and events. For information about the national movement, click the link below.

United Women in Faith

Rooted Women's Ministry creates space specifically for women in their 20s and 40s. We host monthly gatherings built around friendship, faith, and real conversation. And as part of the wider United Women in Faith community, we also bring together women of every generation who want a place to belong and a community to call their own.
