A variety of ministries, mission projects, discipleship paths and fellowship opportunities are available to women at West Lawn UMC. We invite all females to get involved in areas that interest them, and use their God-given gifts to bring glory and blessings to others. We encourage women to suggest and foster new ministries at any time. For more information regarding Women's Ministries, contact Kelly Rismiller.

Women's Small Groups
Small groups of women informally gather both on campus and in one another's homes to share in fellowship and life experiences as they strengthen their Christian friendships. We encourage all small groups to remain open to new individuals, as everyone can benefit from living in close community with one another.
