The Lexington Methodist Women seek to create a place for all women of the church to belong. There are various “Circles” which are small groups of women who meet at various times throughout the week and month. Each Circle also has a mission spotlight that they support throughout the year. Throughout the year, quarterly fellowship events are held, and a schedule of those events for the year are listed below. As well as multiple fundraisers are held to raise money for supported missions. For more information or if you are interested in joining a circle, contact the circle leader. Contact information may be found at the bottom of this page.
