Small Groups
-
ALPHA is an acronym describing our small group: accountability, learning/laughter, prayer/participation, honesty/humor, action in community. We have individuals and couples who come together to study and share our lives, including joys and concerns. We meet from 5:30-7pm on the 2nd and 4th Sundays, September - May, at the church (or virtually). We have done service projects, Bible studies, book discussions, and video-led series; we take turns sharing leadership and bringing dessert.

The Freeman Small Group is made up of retired individuals or couples who gather once or twice a month to study and for fellowship. (This group is not accepting new members at this time.)

These women come together to knit, crochet and fellowship with one another from 9:45-10:45 on the 3rd Sunday of the month, September - May, in the Chapel on the lower level. We create items of love and comfort such as prayer shawls, afghans, prayer squares, baby blankets, and winter items. Late in the year we sponsor an Artisan Sale where handmade items are sold, with proceeds going to a designated non-profit organization.

We are a group of women who share a similar life stage. As recent empty nesters, most of us are moving into the "next chapter" of our lives...adult children establishing independence and getting married, welcoming grandkids, and navigating retirement. We seek to study the Word, pray for each other’s joys and concerns, and enjoy fellowship with each other. We meet from 7-8:30pm twice a month on Tuesdays, September-May, in member's homes. (Not accepting new members at this time.)

Couples who became new parents in 2022-2023 gather for sharing stories and support on the parenting journey. We meet monthly on a Thursday at the church with childcare, and monthly on a Saturday for a social outing with our children.

This women's group gathers for fellowship, study, and various outreach activities.
