These ministries look to find ways to nurture those members
and friends who are part of the First UMC family. Typically they focus on
educational, worship, spiritual formation and stewardship components of our
ministry.
Music
We have various opportunities to glorify God through Music. Please see
our separate Music Ministry area.
Fellowship of Methodist Women
The daytime group meets the third Wednesday of each month (summer months
excluded) at noon for a luncheon and program. All women are welcome!
The evening group meets the second Tuesday of each month (summer months
excluded) at 7:15 p.m. for dessert and a program. This group meets in
member's homes. All women in the church are welcome!
1st First Quilters
The 1st First Quilters meet on the 3rd Saturday of each month
from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Beginners as well as
Seasoned Quilters are welcome. Don't forget your sewing machine!
Book Club
A book club of Methodist women meets at 7:00 p.m. the last Monday of
each month to discuss books of interest. The contact is Mary Ann
McKibben at 345-7507. We meet in various homes and occasionally in a
book store coffee shop.
Prayer and Share
The Prayer and Share group meets at noon on Thursdays to share with
each other and address any prayer requests. Each person brings his or
her own lunch.
Dinners for 8
We have 27 households participating in the Fall/Winter Dinners for Eight
Program. Each month a group of eight folks gather for a potluck -
sometimes dinner, other times just coffee and desert, pizza, a hike in
the woods or whatever the hosts decides. Each month, everyone is
"scrambled" and new groups meet. Everyone takes a turn as
host. Between January and March we will have six groups meeting monthly
and an all-group potluck will be held in Fellowship Hall in April.
Anyone interested in participating can call Barbara Trimmer, 346-6113
for details. Always room at the table to squeeze in someone new.
Parents Night Out
The second Friday of each month is Parents Night Out, when
professional child care providers care for members' children, ages 1 to
11, from 5:30 p.m. - 10:00 p.m. Cost is $5.00 for one child, or $10 for
a family.
Volunteers
As with most churches, First Church has a crew of volunteers without
whom we could not manage. There is always room for others with office
skills, a painter’s ability, a knack for gardening; you name it, we
can put you to work! It is always with deep appreciation that we use
volunteers - they keep the “machine” of the church tuned up!
