150th Anniversary of United Methodist Women
Written by Iliana Gonzalez on August 10, 2016. Posted in Events
On March 23, 1869, eight women gathered at Tremont Methodist Episcopal Church in Boston, Massachusetts, and organized the Woman’s Foreign Missionary Society, what would become United Methodist Women. Those women raised money to send a doctor, Clara Swain, and a teacher, Isabella Thoburn, to India as missionaries to serve the women of that nation.
Celebrate the dedication and foresight of our foremothers in mission as we lead up to our 150th anniversary in 2019.
