Besides the major fellowship events, a number of small groups regularly meet at United Church for fellowship, spiritual growth, and education. The Board of Adult Education will be encouraging the formation of other small groups each fall and spring. Watch for announcements!

Schedules for meetings may vary from time to time.  If you are new the church and are interested in one of these groups, please contact the church office at office@unitedchurch.org for group leadership contact information.

Yoga

The yoga class is designed with the less-experienced individual in mind. The charge of $5 per class is used for equipment when needed and is otherwise contributed back to church projects.

United Greens "Earth Ministry" Group
(2nd Monday of the month, 7 pm - Church Library)
This group will be a home for concerned church members and friends seeking information, dialogue and support for taking action on Care of Creation. As the church continues its classes and activities in scripture study, energy-saving, and political advocacy, this group will meet regularly to assess planned activities and world developments, let scripture speak, alert us all, and initiate new approaches. We will also use a simple internet group to keep in touch easily.
