UNITED METHODIST WOMEN
The Osseo United Methodist Women’s organization (UMW) extends a warm welcome to all women who attend our church. We hold general meetings four times a year.
We have interesting programs and plan activities to provide money and goods to help support our Mission Projects around the world. Our activities of UMW are the Spring Banquet, held in May, and the Secret Sis program, remembering a special friend with cards and small gifts anonymously.
CIRCLES
In addition to general meetings, we have four Circles of women who meet together, study, and have fun in smaller groups. These groups provide a wonderful opportunity to form closer friendships while working together to support Christian activities in the world.
The Circles are:
Deborah-Ruth – meets 1:30 p.m. on the third Wednesday of the month.
Mary-Martha – meets 7:00 p.m. on the first Thursday of the month.
Rebekah – meets 7:00 p.m. on the
second Thursday of the month.
Lydia – meets 7:00 p.m. the 2nd & 4th Mondays of the month.
Meetings are generally held at the church unless otherwise indicated in the church bulletin.

at Osseo United Methodist Church.
Materials for the quilts are provided by various sources. When the

are announced and can be worked on. Instructions are always
