Small Groups at First UMC

 

Sunday School  for children and adults meets each week from 10am - 10:50am in various rooms throughout the church.  Come get acquainted with a group by clicking below:

Choir

The choir sings at the 9 am service and practices each Tuesday 7:30 - 8:30 pm.  Practice resumes in August.

Glory Ringers

The Glory Ringers provide special music at the 9am service and practices Wednesday from 6:30 - 7:30 pm.

 

Knit Whitz

The Knit Whitz meet each Thursday in the Library from 10:00 - Noon.  They knit prayer shawls, lap robes, sweaters, caps, slippers and mittens.  Many of their items show God's love to those in need either as they wheelchair bound, cancer patients or just in need of prayer.  Knit Whitz time is a time of fellowship, fun and prayer.  Any level, free yarn just bring your own needles.

United Methodist Women

First Church has three UMW groups that gather for a time of fellowship and friendship with other women.  The program provided varies by group and month.  Contact the church office for more information.  The groups meet:

            Good Samaritan Circle  2nd Wednesday 10:00 am at Church

            Sunshine Circle - 3rd Wednesday 10:30 am at Church

            Patience Circle - 3rd Thursday 7:00 pm at various locations

United Methodist Men

The men's group meet on the first Saturday of most months.  Breakfast is served.  The usual agenda is a devotional, program speaker and business meeting.  All men in the congregation are welcome.  There are no dues, but a collection is taken to offset the cost of breakfast.  David Sage is the president and Don Rohr is vice-president and treasurer.  

The club organizes the church's food booth operation at the annual Santa-Cali-Gon festival, but it depends on volunteer workers from throughout the congregation.  Also, it provides various capital improvements, supports church youth for summer camp and sponsors a church-wide Valentine Banquet.

Next meeting: 7:30 a.m., Saturday, October 2nd
