The UMW of First Methodist Church is made up of two groups which meet monthly in the homes of members or at the church.  General meetings of all UMW members are held four times a year in Fellowship Hall at the church. The General meetings are followed by a luncheon in Fellowship Hall. The UMW sponsors the annual Feast of Goodness Luncheon the first Tuesday in November each year.
