United Church Women (UCW)

The purpose of the U.C.W. of the congregation of Portland United Church is to unite women of the congregation for the total mission of the church and to provide a medium through which they may express their loyalty and devotion to Jesus Christ in Christian witness, study, fellowship and service.

Our Mission is to love God, to foster Christian faithfulness, spirituality, commitment and devotion and to promote love and respect by living generously and giving joyfully to all God's people and to affirm and strengthen ourselves creatively.

As United Church Women we believe:

  • that as Christian women of faith, we nurture spirituality by reaching out with commitment and devotion to all God's people;
  • in promoting truth, justice, peace, caring and sharing with respect for all in the community and wider world;
  • in loving God and others by living generously and giving joyfully; and,
  • in affirming and strengthening ourselves creatively in study and witness through music, laughter and solitude.
