Meade Shotwell
Circle
Meade Shotwell Circle meets at 6:30 p.m. on the second Monday of every month. We are your go-to “Zoom Circle” if you are out of town, can’t meet in person, or just want to pop in. All are welcome to join any or all Zoom meetings! For the link, contact Lynn Osborne. We are a group of women of varying ages and backgrounds who have grown together through love and friendship. You will find us busy at work in all areas of the church, including collecting books and school supplies, helping out with Music Camp or Fall Festival, and supporting all UMW activities. Our donations support several organizations each year, including Common Good, The Nest, Books for Children, and the Methodist Home for Children. We participate in UMW Unit leadership and projects.
Meets the 2nd Monday of each month at 6:30pm.
New Life Circle
Meets the 2nd Thursday of each month at 1:00pm.
Meets the second Thursday of the month at 1:00p.m. in the Fireside Room. We are a group of ladies who have supportive fellowship along with a desire to help others. A main focus is visiting “Hug Buddies “; church members who are in an assisted living facility or in skilled nursing, shut in at home, recovering from surgery, or just needs some encouragement. We also deliver bud vases made from the Sunday’s arrangement. Monthly cards are sent to all Hug Buddies including those who don’t need visits. The UK Wesley Foundation is provided with a meal by us in the fall and spring. We give birthday gifts for children in One Parent Scholar House, an organization that helps single parents pursue post-high school continuing education by providing affordable housing and on-site childcare. The Nest, Methodist Children’s Home, and UWF projects are supported by us. We welcome anyone who should like to join us!
Sarah Bagby Circle
Meets the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 12:00pm.
The Sarah Bagby Circle meets at 12 noon the second Wednesday of each month in the Fireside Room and by zoom. We have a variety of programs with speakers from our church staff and community organizations. Twice a year we go out to lunch to celebrate birthdays and holidays. We promote Christian love through our activities within the circle, our unit, and the church, as well as outreach projects. Using the UWF Prayer Guide, we pray for our Methodist missionaries. We also have Prayer Partners within our circle. We welcome guests and new members who are interested in helping make a difference in ministry with women and children. Our Circle is named in honor of Sarah Frances Bagby, wife of Rev. Steadman Bagby.
