Adult Education and Fellowship

We have opportunities for adults of all ages from young adults to seniors to gather together for education and fellowship.  Several groups meet to hear speakers on various subjects, others focus on Bible study and books of spiritual interest.  All of them offer a chance for fellowship and the sharing of our faith.  

     Friendship Class

    The class meets on Sunday mornings from 9:20 to 10:10 a.m., September through May. They have speakers and discussion on a variety of topics.  It is open to everyone at any time and meets in Room 106 (Fellowship Room).

 

Library Study Group

    Class members take turns leading a discussion of the Bible and other books of religious significance which everyone in the class reads. The class meets in the church Library (first floor) on Wednesday evenings at 6:00 p.m. from September to June.  The group has a social activity once a month. All are welcome to come for one class, one book (usually 4–6 weeks), or more.

 

Parenting Book Group

Th The Parenting Book Group meets several times a year to discuss issues raised by relevant books on parenting. The discussions are led by a psychotherapist in the congregation who has experience working with families and adolescents. The meetings are open to everyone who has an interest in the issues: parents, grandparents, teachers, etc. whether or not part of our church community. The titles of the books are announced far enough ahead of time that there is adequate time to read them.    

 

    Programs and Lunch for Seniors (PALS)

    Seniors gather one Monday most months for a program and a delicious home-cooked lunch. They enjoy a variety of musical, lecture and other types of programs. All are welcome - no age requirement.

 

    Saturday Morning Men’s Group

    The group meets from 7:30-9:00 a.m. on most Saturdays, schedules permitting, in the Wesley Room with the purpose of supporting each other as Christian men to recognize God's presence, seek God’s guidance, and give thanks for the rich blessings in their lives.  It is currently a group of 2-5 men per week.

 

    Short-term Classes

    Four to eight week classes for adults are often planned to coincide with holiday periods and/or to appeal to special interests. We are a church that loves to learn and exchange ideas.

 

    Tuesday Morning Bible Study

The Tuesday Morning Bible Study Group meets at 9:30 a.m. on most Tuesdays throughout the year at an off-site location. Our purpose is greater understanding of the Bible and our religious faith through the study and support of each other as Christian women.

 

    United Methodist Women

   Women of all ages at CCUMC enjoy fellowship while learning and working together. Many meet in small groups monthly for fellowship and to work on a project, or study a specific topic like climate change or Israeli-Palestinian relations. All women are invited to a gathering and program four times a year.  They raise funds at the annual Holiday Bazaar and Rummage Sale for local and international missions.
