Greensboro, N.C.
Serving God as Sisters in Christ
OUR STORY
Founded in 1941, Church Women United (CWU) is a national volunteer Christian ecumenical women’s movement initiated and carried out by women in the United States and Puerto Rico. It is a movement that brings together women of diverse races, cultures and traditions in closer Christian fellowship, prayer, advocacy, and action for peace with justice in the world. CWU engages millions of women representing twenty-six supporting denominations and participating Christian women.
Common Goals
1. We intend to grow in our faith and to extend our vision of what it means to be Christian women living and working in society.
2. We intend to strengthen the visibility of the ecumenical community.
3. We intend to work for a just, peaceful and caring society.
4. We intend to use responsibly and creatively the resources God has entrusted to us – our intelligence, our time, our energy and our money – as we carry out the mission of Christ through CWU.
