Reports, minutes, financial records, correspondence, printed materials, photographs, and scrapbook material document the organization, structure, and activities of Church Women United in Texas. The bulk of the collection documents executive board meetings, leadership council meetings, and the annual state meetings, from 1960 to 1999. Materials are arranged into three series: Organization, Activities, and Scrapbooks.

Folders within the Organization series contain materials on the state unit's structure, bylaws, and membership, as well as meeting minutes and reports, financial reports and records, newsletters, yearbooks, publicity materials and newspaper articles. Prior to 1984, financial records of the state unit are included in the executive and annual meeting reports. Materials provide detailed documentation of the state organization's work with local units, as well as the work within those local units, from 1960 to 1999. Work with the national organization is less well documented.

Folders in the Activities series contain information on the organization's ecumenical celebrations and materials on ecumenical advocacy and service projects supported by the state and local units. Materials on projects are arranged alphabetically by the sponsoring organization's name. These materials primarily describe the projects and celebrations. Details of units' participation in these activities are in the reports and records in the Organization series.

Scrapbooks, dating between 1962 and 2004, further document the state unit's membership, organization, and activities. Some scrapbook materials are housed in folders. Other scrapbooks have been unbound and wrapped in acid free paper for preservation. Included in the scrapbooks is some printed material duplicated in other series. However, photographs and other material in the scrapbooks extend knowledge and understanding of the state unit's history and work, as well as the history and work of local units. Photocopies of newspaper articles covering activities in years prior to1960, the date of the earliest scrapbook, and programs from early state assembly meetings can also be found. One of the earliest documents in the collection is the program of the State Assembly Meeting held in Dallas, Texas, in 1939, located in Box 14, Folder 5.

The Addition contains a majority of administrative papers including Secretary's books, budgets, correspondence, reports, agendas, minutes, newsletters, photographs, and a yearbook from Texas including the Brownsville and Greenville units. Dates range from 1967-1976, 1988-2006.
