United Women in Faith Sunday – Thank You!
Thank you to all the ladies who participated in the United Women in Faith Worship Service on Sunday, April 16. Also, many thanks to Sandy Simpson, Jinyang Tian and the Daughters of Faith Chorus for the wonderful music selections. It was a joy to have Julie Carneal, from OPEN M as our guest speaker. We would also like to thank everyone who donated to our special offering to OPEN M. Through your generosity, we collected over $600 that will continue to help support the many outreach mission ministries at OPEN M.
MISSIONS
UWF Presents Special Mission Recognition Award
One of the ways United Methodist Women support missions is through the purchase of Special Mission Recognition Award pins. It is also an opportunity for the UWF to honor a special recipient who has distinguished themselves in advancing the purpose of UWF and have also dedicated so much time and effort to service.
Linda Arnold was recently presented the 2023 UWF Special Mission Pin. Linda received a gold lapel pin with a cross.
The word IMPACT was used to describe Linda:
- I-she is impressive and has been involved with missions since she joined HUMC,
- M-she is mission oriented,
- P-she is perky and shares her positive energy,
- A-she is active in many facets of our church,
- C-she is committed to making the world a better place,
- T- she is a terrific team player and gives of her time freely.
Congratulations Linda!!

Outreach
UMW Nurture Committee Needs You!
The Hudson United Methodist Women’s Nurture Committee is a vital ministry to the members of HUMC. The Committee arranges for meals to be provided to families that may need assistance with meals following a hospitalization, health issues or a new baby, etc. There are also times when we need someone to deliver a meal. We can also have an ongoing need and would welcome new volunteers to participate in this church-wide ministry.
If you are on the email distribution list, we thank you and hope that you will remain on the list. If you have not signed up to assist with a meal from time to time but would like to be added to the email distribution list, please contact Cheryl Gamble or the church office.
