545 |a Ecumenical Christian women's group. Church Women United in Illinois (CWUI) is the state chapter of the national organization, Church Women United (CWU). Formed in 1941, CWU is an ecumenical movement of interdenominational Christian women from diverse racial, ethnic, age, and economic backgrounds. The fundamental purpose of CWU is to bring Christian women together to work towards the betterment of the community and the development of women's full potential in society. CWUI originated in 1931 as the Illinois Council of Federated Church Women. The non-profit organization changed its name to the Illinois Council of Church Women in 1936, and then to the United Council of Church Women in 1941. In 1956, it was renamed United Church Women, and officially became Church Women United in Illinois in 1967 and affiliated with CWU. CWUI is divided into approximately 110 local units throughout the state.
