Men’s Fellowship
The men of the church meet regularly for coffee or breakfast as announced through the church newsletter and the bulletin. All men of the congregation are invited and encouraged to come. There is no formal program, just a time of fellowship. From time to time, a men and women’s breakfast is scheduled.
Men may also participate, along with members of five other churches in Alexandria, Forada, and Villard, in a Men’s Darts league that is active during the fall and winter. The meetings alternate in location and meet on Mondays at 7:00 p.m.
Women’s Fellowship
All the women who belong to our church are automatically members of Women’s Fellowship and have the privilege of participating in the special service and fellowship that women provide. Meetings are held on the first Thursday of the month from September through June.
The group provides assistance with funerals, wedding and anniversary celebrations, and special events. All members are assigned to service groups to equalize the responsibilities. A booklet outlining the meetings and serving schedules, as well as the service committees, is issued annually to all members.
Each member of Women’s Fellowship also has the opportunity to belong to one of the three Circles.
Salad Luncheon and Bazaar
On the second Thursday in July, the members of Women’s Fellowship hold their annual Salad Luncheon and Bazaar. Tickets are sold for the luncheon, which always features a salad buffet made up of salads prepared and served by the ladies of the church. In connection with the luncheon, the Bazaar gift shop sells handcrafted items made by Friendly Service. Also for sale are baked goods as well as items offered by the men of the church.
Spaghetti Dinner and Silent Auction
In October, members of Women’s Fellowship traditionally prepare and serve a spaghetti dinner, one of their largest fund-raising endeavors. With this, a silent auction is held.
