Fellowship Gatherings

Sunday Morning Coffee Hour	Following the 10:00 am Sunday morning worship service, there is a fellowship time in the Hearth Room. For some, it is a brief time between worship and study; for others it is a relaxed time of conversation. The second Sunday of the month is designated as a Family Coffee Hour hosted by a Sunday School class.
M&M's	The Mature and Moving organization is mostly from the retired group. This group meets one Monday a month at the church for a noontime covered dish dinner and program.
Social Groups	A relaxed time in a local restaurant is scheduled for adults during the Advent season.
Special Events	The whole church family gathers for festive events, including: Hanging of the Greens begins the Advent season. Sunday School picnic ends our Sunday School year in May. The Green Corn Picnic gathers us together in September. Other events are scheduled throughout the year.

Youth Ministries

A Church School program is offered to the children of the church.

Pre-school children meet during the worship hour, arriving first at the chapel for a fifteen minute opening program called Children's Chapel.

Elementary and middle school students attend the first half of the worship hour leaving for their class at the second hymn.

High School students meet once a month for coffee and discussions tied in to our convenant, current events, and issues relevant to this age group.

The Senior High Youth Fellowship Group (for grades 9 through 12) meets monthly on Sunday evenings at 6:30 pm for a variety of discussions and activities. See Youth Fellowship for more information on this youth group.

The Junior Youth Fellowship (for grades 4 through 8) meet monthly for recreational and service activities. See Youth Fellowship for more information on this youth group.
