The Sisters In Spirit group was created to bring together the young Christian women of First UMC. The group is open to all women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. The goal of this group is to allow a place for women to join together as sisters in Christ and fellowship with one another. The group meets each Wednesday and is a blessing for all those who attend. SIS provides a place for women to come and participate in Bible studies, crafts, mission work, dinners out, and more. It is a place to belong. Many of the SIS attendees are also members of United Methodist Women. We invite you to join us on Wednesday nights at 6:15pm in Room 309. Childcare is provided. We are now on Facebook!

30 Rock
The ’30 Rock’ group is made up on 20 and 30 year olds who consider themselves to be ‘Young Professionals’ whose foundation is built on the love and strength of God, our Rock. We strive to provide a comprehensive young adult/young professional ministry program, where we can experience and share the love of God in various ways as a community. We meet weekly at a private residence located close to the University area. We begin with a meal together, with members bringing food and stories to share. We then move on to curriculum/study and discussion, concluding with announcements, joys and concerns and prayer. We are a strong community of followers who enjoy the fellowship of being together. We have watched and supported one another through many trials and successes, and we continue to grow and support one another through life as a Christian community. Please come and join us as we continue on our journey together. For location or more informaiton about 30 Rock please contact Kelly Brooks at 505-550-9536.
