Church is more than a place you show up for an hour on Sundays. Your name matters here, and we want our congregation to know each other.
The hour between the two worship services is its own ministry. The coffee station, the donuts, the lingering conversations in the narthex and the parking lot are a chance to catch up and connect. Stay a few extra minutes, find someone you do not know, and introduce yourself.
If you are a guest, fill out the attendance pad during worship and someone will reach out within the week. The staff is here to help you find your people.
Small gatherings of church members who meet regularly. Some are organized around a hobby, like woodworking, crafting, games, or knitting. Some around a life stage. Some around nothing more than the desire to know one another better.
Eight to twelve people who gather monthly for a shared dinner, rotating between members' homes or meeting at a restaurant. The structure is simple, the commitment is light, and the friendships are real.
Monthly gatherings for meals and fellowship. Email srpastor@spanishfortumc.org to learn more.
Every Wednesday evening at 5:30, the Mahjong Fellowship Group meets in the Youth Area at the West Campus to play, and welcomes anyone who wants to learn. All skill levels, including total beginners.
Every month the No Book Book Club meets at The Hawthorn Tea Room in Daphne for tea, meaningful conversation, and fellowship. There is no assigned reading and no homework.
A fellowship ministry for adults 55 and older: monthly outings, local day trips, meals, and special events, often traveling together on the church bus. Whether you are new to the church or have been here for years, you are invited.
“The first step is simply to come. The second step is to come back. The third step is to let someone know your name.”
Throughout the year, the church hosts gatherings that bring the whole congregation and the whole community together.
The church parking lot fills with candy and costumes for the families of our community.
Egg hunts, games, and a parking lot full of neighbors in their Sunday best and their bunny ears.
Each December the whole congregation gathers for an evening of food and fellowship as we begin the season of Advent together.
Tell us a little about yourself and we will help you make a connection. That is not a program. It is just what family does.
