Small groups and childcare will also be offered for children and youth.  There’s something for everyone on Wednesdays at FUMC!

Also, be sure to join us for our Meet in the Middle fellowship meals, which begin at 5:30 p.m.  There’s also a brief service of Holy Communion (15 minutes) at 5:15 p.m. each week.  Join us as you can!

Classes will begin on Sept. 6th and run through Nov. 29th (excluding Nov. 22nd.)  Daily reading of Scripture, prayer, and building relationships.  Disciple classes draw upon the work of scholars, personal Bible reading and study of the participant, and dynamic group discussion to aid understanding of the Bible.  Led by Doreen Eager.

We Saved You a Seat:  Do you have a difficult time making authentic relationships and having people cheer for you? Jesus is our ultimate model for authentic friendship.  Instead of chasing perfection, overcome your fear of being known and find the courage to connect. Led by Ashley Falls
