Prayers of St. Teresa of Avila

Christ has

Nobody now on earth but yours;

No hands but yours;

No feet but yours;

Your eyes are the eyes

Through which is to look out

Christ’s compassion to the world;

Yours are the feet

With which he is to go about

Doing good;

Yours are the hands

With which he is to bless us now.

Amen.

The PURPOSE

The organized unit of the United Methodist Women shall be a

community of women whose PURPOSE is to know God and

to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus

Christ; to develop a creative supportive fellowship and to

expand the concepts of mission through

participation in the global ministries of the church.
