of heart and mind and help us live our mission in today's
world." --Johanna

Reading
Program
Education is a core UMW value. Year-round, HPCUMC's
unit joins women from across the country by reading books
that further our vision. Titles cover contemporary topics:
spiritual growth, mission, community nurturing and social
action.
Special
emphasis is given to summer reading. One book is assigned
per month, and readers are invited to participate in a discussion
group.

"As
Christians, we long to alleviate the suffering of others…The
Nast Trinity dinners offer us the opportunity to directly
address one limited problem…right now." --Roxanne Hamilton
