We currently have six subgroups which meet monthly
(most groups do not meet in summer). Each group has their own format for
study. The smaller groups provide opportunity for growth in a caring and sharing atmosphere. Subgroups support different missions through hands on participation and
monetary support of various charitable organizations.
All groups meet together several times a year for special events. The subgroups are:
- Agape: meets on the second Thursday of the month at the church at 10:00am in room Y-4. Chairperson is Lois Arnold (846-5324).
- Circle of Joy: meets the second Tuesday of the month at the church at 7:00pm in S-1. Chairpersons are Arlene Eckert (761-9766) and
Cary Peterson (449-2647).
- Covenant: meets the third Monday of the month in homes at 1:00pm. Chairperson Martha Biggio (847-9959).
- Footprints: meets the third Monday of the month at the church at 7:00pm in room S-3.
Chairpersons are Andra Cook (844-6784) and Gail Scruggs (554-4824).
- Foundations: meets the third Tuesday of the month at the church at 7pm in room S-3. Chairperson Lee Ellen Harmer (870-1019).
