UNITED METHODIST WOMEN
Portage United Methodist Women are proud to be able to support missions both
locally and at the district and conference level. We are always open to
welcoming any women with interests in community and helping others. Please
consider visiting either our Odanah or Dorcas Circle meetings some month, or one
of our general meetings.
No meetings in January, but UMW will gather on Feb 4 from 5-5:30 pm for our annual Call to Prayer. This year it is a time of prayer together, followed by a simple supper of soup and bread. Anyone, male or female, is welcome to join us.
