United Methodist Women

The women of Weddington Church invite you to join us in our women’s groups, Sunday School classes, Bible studies, and as volunteers in church ministries. We’re a great and growing church and would love for you to join us! 

The United Methodist Women hosts casual events in an effort to build cohesiveness between all the women’s groups of the church and to reach out to ladies that are new to the church or are still looking for ways to get involved and connected.
