In 1872 a group formed at Central United Methodist Church which was later named The Wesleyan Service Guild; then in 1940 it became The Women's Society of Christian Service; with the merging of the United Brethren and the Methodist Churches in 1968 they became The United Methodist Women. "The achievements through the years have not been just in administration of the work, raising vast sums of money or the lives salvaged, children educated, sick cared for, or communities uplifted.
