Reading Program for Youth!
Western North Carolina Conference United Methodist Women

Another new and exciting reading program unfolded during 2006. Realizing we have many teen units in the Western North Carolina Conference, we want the young women to be involved in the reading program. You suggested and we listened!!  The Reading Program has exciting books for youth, offering a wide variety of subjects that will ensure spiritual enhancement, helping to be mindful of social issues and global concerns. The books are magnificent tools for interpreting the Purpose of United Methodist Women.

Complete information regarding the Youth Reading Program, including guidelines & suggestions, and the book list, is available here.  You can download a WORD or PDF file with the complete information. Information is also available from your district Secretary of Program Resources.
