YoungAdults15095.jpg

The Fellowship Club (also known as the F.C.) is a group for 20's and 30's (single, married, with or without children). They have a full schedule of monthly events. Any young adult is invited to come!



Feminist Christian Reading Group

Through conversations about books and our lives, we practice a Christianity that supports the flourishing of women and all people in mutual respect and joyful celebration of the uniqueness and variety of God's gifts.

We seek to understand how our Christian tradition has marginalized women and made it difficult to see women as truly made in God's image. Through lively and heartfelt dialogue we are revitalizing and transforming our tradition, including expanded images of the Divine, inclusive language, and female spiritual role models. As we explore these themes we support each other in discovering how they influence and inform our lives and our worship. We have been meeting since 2002.

We meet the first and third Mondays each month at 7:30pm in the Wesley Room. Consider joining us

Newcomers are very welcome.

For more information contact Mo Olson or Sandra Florstedt.



Sunday - Couples Group Is Under Way


The couples group meets every Sunday in the Wesley Room right after worship.

We are using The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate by Gary Chapman as the theme for our next group of meetings. All couples are welcome to attend. Please call Lou or Patty Bellardo for more details.
