United Methodist Women: One of the largest women’s organizations in the world, the UMW’s purpose is to know God and, particularly, to promote the cause of women and children, locally, nationally, and internationally.

At their bi-monthly general luncheon meetings, speakers share how and where United Methodist Women can reach out to help others.

Within the larger unit are six smaller groups, “Circles,” which meet monthly.  Friendships are forged and strengthened with love and support given abundantly.

Each June, the UMW hosts the Strawberry Festival, which is their largest mission fundraiser and one of the church’s major fellowship events.

Moms

Moms home during the day with babies and preschoolers may feel a sense of isolation.  Many have never had strong church ties. Childcare is provided when the Moms meet every Tuesday morning to share, learn and grow.

Small Groups: CBS (Care, Bible and Service) groups have become an invaluable tool for building community within Christ Church. These groups meet once every other week to pray for one another, study scripture and implement service projects together. 

Because there is also a need for genuine community within the young adult population, small groups will be offered for those looking for that type of interaction. Groups meet at various times throughout the week and in various places. CBS groups will be formed based on where the individuals are in their lives - college students, single, married, married with children, divorced, etc. We’re always on the lookout for people willing to be leaders as well as members so please let us know if you feel called to lead.
