FELLOWSHIP
The mission of the Fellowship Committee is to create an inviting atmosphere for congregants to socialize after the service, to foster a sense of community among church members, and to provide a welcoming experience for newcomers and visitors. The committee takes responsibility for a variety of activities to achieve this mission.
Fellowship provides a weekly opportunity for the worshiping community to gather in Wester Hall (the fellowship hall) after every Sunday service. Some churches have coffee and cookies after church. We tend to go a little overboard because...well, we love to eat and catch up with one another! It's not uncommon to see casseroles, salads, bagels, homemade soups, and more provided by committee members.
The committee also highlights special Sundays throughout the year, and celebrates milestones for staff, students, new members, baptisms, and more.
Beyond Sunday mornings, Fellowship actively teams with other ministries to present events for congregation members and visitors to grow in relationship with each other and our community, including Shrove Tuesday Dinner and Pancake Races, Chili Cookoff, Outdoor Concert, National Night Out, and Oktoberfest.
