A Mission Giving Message to Local Unit Treasurers
Great news from the FL Conference United Women in Faith Treasurer, Donna Spear. The formal IRS Letter now indicates our organization’s name change. It reads “Florida Conference United Methodist Women dba Florida Conference United Women in Faith” (“dba” stands for “doing business as”). The Tax ID # did NOT change. What this means is that you do not have to change the name on your bank accounts. You can continue to use your existing bank account. You can accept checks made out to either name.
Mission Giving is down considerably so please continue to pledge and give to missions.
Checks can be made payable to: South East District United Methodist Women or South East District United Women in Faith, or acceptable abbreviations or shortened versions such as South East Dist UM Women or South East Dist UWFaith.
The United Women in Faith unit of First United Methodist Church of Coral Gables held its second annual Hurricane Tree Project this July.

The United Women in Faith unit was able to complete nine hurricane preparedness kits for needy families in our community!
The first ever South East District Soul Care Retreat held on April 15th was a fabulous success. With over 80 people in attendance, we collected over $500 for Mission Giving. We enjoyed a special Meditation Session, Chair Yoga, and Mindfulness Creative Expression Activities.
