SMALL GROUPS
United Methodist Men: This group is made up of men in our church who come together and meet on the
second Tuesday of each month. Meals are always served at the meetings, which begin at 6:30 p.m.  UMM has two
events each year that support a scholarship for students studying for church careers.  These events are the
Valenines Dinner in February and the Fish Fry in May.

United Methodist Women:  United Methodist Women have been in existence in mission for 136 years, and
we are proud to say that we have a very active Unit of 35 members who make up two different Interest Groups here
at St. Luke’s.

The Mary and Martha Group meets the third Tuesday of each month at 10:00am in the Ben Davis Room.

The Lunch Bunch Group meets the third Thursday of each month at 12:00 noon in the Sarah Classroom.  This
Group shares a light lunch and has an abbreviated program in order to accomodate any working women who
wish to attend.

Both groups have two Mission Studies and one Spiritual Growth Study each year and are required to take some
sort of action following each in order to get credit for them.  In 2006, the studies will be:
1.        Children of the Bible
2.        India and Pakistan
3.        Public Education
FELLOWSHIP GROUPS

Koinonia Breakfast Group: Everyone is welcome to attend our sessions from 7:00 to 8:00 a.m. each
Wednesday morning. Enjoy good food, fellowship, Bible study, and prayer.

Crafters:  This group meets every second Tuesday from 10:00 to 2:00 p.m. to make craft items, share a bag
lunch and visit. No special talent is required, and it’s a great way to make new friends.

Upper Third: is a group of older adults that meets in the Fellowship Hall the second Thursday of each month
at 11:30 a.m. This is an interdenominational group and all are invited.  We have enlightening programs,
fellowship and  a covered dish for all who attend.  We also celebrate members’ birthdays each month.  Average
attendance is 50 adults.  This ministry has endured for over 20 years.
