Adults

North UMC offers weekly Sunday school classes and regular Bible studies and book studies. At North there is a place for everyone to belong and grow more deeply in their relationship with God.

Two adult Sunday school classes meet from 9:45 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.:

Power and Light: This group is a welcoming, diverse group united in fellowship, social service and personal support in the mutual pursuit of spiritual growth.

Sojourners: This group engages in a variety of studies ranging from traditional Bible studies to exploring contemporary works in relationship to the church. Its members also serve together in various projects.

Studying the Bible is one of the most important disciplines of the Christian life. Short-term Bible study and book study groups meet at varies times throughout the year. More information on them is available in the spring or fall event books, which can be downloaded from this website’s “Events” section.

Young Adults

North Church’s young adults’ ministry is for those age 18-35 who are no longer in high school. These fellowship events focus on establishing and developing friendships between those in this diverse age group, which consists of individuals going through many different life experiences such as college, graduate school and/or the work force; military service and/or training; are single, dating and/or married, and are living with family and/or renting or owning their own places. They also have a Sunday school class. For more information contact Brandon Wallace, our minister of youth and young adults.

United Women in Faith (formerly United Methodist Women)

United Women in Faith is the largest denominational faith organization for women, with approximately 800,000 members worldwide. Its mission is to foster spiritual growth, develop leaders, and advocate for justice. Members raise up to $20 million annually for programs and projects related to women, children, and youth in the United States and more than 100 other countries.

North offers two circles of United Methodist Women.

Miriam Circle: This circle gathers at 12:30 p.m. on the fourth Thursday of each month in the library for project planning and programs focused on the United Women in Faith’s missions.

Women of Lydia Circle: This circle meets at 7 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month in the library. Its members support each other through discussions of current topics, studies and mission work.

Neither circle meets in June or July.

Both groups often work together on fund-raising projects such as their Sunday suppers at noon and product sales.
