Fellowship Church can be fun. For us it is fun to find excuses to get together and enjoy each other's company. Throughout the year we have meals together: some potluck, some presented by very talented cooks, and occasionally a gourmet dinner presented around a theme (such as a part of Italy called Tuscany after a group of women finished reading the book "Under the Tuscan Sun"). Bike trips, canoe trips, ice fishing, and going to the theatre together have also been fun ways of being together. Over the years we have had Friday Variety Nights, game nights, gym nights at the Borough gym, Hawaii nights, Fiestas, silent auctions to raise money for the youth, talent shows, fascinating Christmas plays, and even a couple of "lets bring all our rummage to trade with each other before we take it all to Bishop's Attic" events. No doubt we will find other excuses to get together.
We currently have one Women's Group in our church which meets two times a month on Wednesday mornings for Bible study and conversation. Through the year the women have special functions, such as an annual Christmas party at Colony Inn, World Day of Prayer worship service, dinners around a theme of a country, and an annual winter retreat.
The men of our congregation gather on the last Saturday of every month to make breakfast and enjoy a program. Some recent programs have been the report of one of our member's trip to Turkey and Rome; another was an ice fishing expedition following breakfast; and another was a demonstration in how to make stained glass windows.
For a number of years, we have had a monthly Book Club meeting for the ladies of the congregation. Together they have read many books over the many years. Usually they gather at one of the women's home to enjoy the fellowship and discussion.
