An Intercessory Prayer Team meets on a regular basis to pray for the prayer requests from FUMC and the community. In addition there is an email group “Amazing Grace Prayer Group” that receives prayer requests through email. YOU can ask for prayers or be on one of the prayer teams by emailing Min.
United Methodist Women
The United Methodist Women’s Unit (UMW) at our church has four circles: Rebekah Circle, Susanna Circle, Wesley Circle and the Gertrude Sewing Circle, that provide opportunities to promote spiritual growth and fellowship and develop awareness and encourage action and advocacy on behalf of women, children and youth, locally and globally. Any female aged 12 and up is welcome to join a circle.
Yoga/Exercise Classes
We offer free yoga and exercise classes during the week. Please contact the church office at 561-395-1244 for the latest schedule.
Circle of 8
The Circle of 8 mission is to help people become better acquainted with each other and to develop friendships within the church family. This is done through group fellowship in an informal, strictly social environment. Single and married adults are sorted into groups of eight, and each group plans its own monthly activities, taking turns hosting the get-togethers. Members’ names are shuffled and sorted into new groups every four months to promote wider circles of acquaintances and friends.
