The Ubuntu Explorers program enables women in the United States to partner with women around the world to experience others’ lives on a short-term basis.
National events incorporate education and action for laywomen, such as the quadrennial Assembly, legislative events, and National Seminar.
United Methodist Women do their local and global mission work by using the venue of this organization as a way to do their outreach. The work is already done for us, all we have to do is plug into the activities that we wish to be involved in.
