United Women in Faith
What Is United Women in Faith?
We are a supportive, inclusive Christian membership organization for women to grow spiritually and work to create a world in which all women, children and youth thrive.
What We Do
Our membership runs between 275-300 ladies who meet monthly September – May. We are organized into 8 different circles representing all age groups. Each group is known as a “Circle” and meets monthly to engage in fellowship, mission work, Bible study and fun. We invite speakers on various topics and work on service projects like feeding the homeless, donating time and materials to community charities, working on global mission projects, participating in Bible studies and providing support to members who are sick, grieving, having babies and much more.
UMW Missions
In 2020, Dunwoody UMW was recognized by the North GA Conference as a Goal of Excellence Unit and a Five Star Giving Unit. We also gave over $6000 in 2020 to national UMW Missions through our pledge drive. Because of our members’ generosity, we were able to donate the following in 2020: click here to view.

Midweek Moms’ Meetup
Rev. Calissa DautermanCalling all moms! While the kids are in Wednesday night programming, take a moment for yourself. Learn and grow with other moms in one of our midweek meetups. Join us in the Kids Activity Room at 5:00 p.m. or the Fellowship Hall Nook at 6:00 p.m. (look for the signs) for a casual, drop-in session of sharing and study.
Tapestry
Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of His return is drawing near, Hebrews 10:24-25. We are a group of women with diverse lives who seek to connect through fellowship, learning and acts of service. Please join us!Kristin EatonAmanda LathamL.i.F.T. Women
Looking for a new way to grow in faith? Join this Sunday school offering for women of all ages and stages! Led by Rev. Kathy Brockman and Rev. Calissa Dauterman, this class is a great place to meet new friends, deepen your knowledge of scripture, and get plugged into the life of the church. Our first study is a deep dive into the Psalms, using creative practices like art and music, alongside standard Bible study. We hope you’ll join us on the Sunday School hallway in Rooms 255/257 and invite a friend!Kathy BrockmanCalissa DautermanWorking Women’s Network

We welcome and look forward to meeting visitors and new members.Shirley LayneAmlie LewisNew Horizons in Christ
This is a group of women with grown children, grandchildren and aging parents. Monthly meetings are geared toward service projects to help families. Meetings are held on different days and nights depending on the service activity, but are generally in the morning. We also meet for a variety of social events throughout the year, and these typically occur in the evening. We have found that this flexible schedule helps our participation.Sharon ConwayHeart & Home
