FCC and Friends Book Group

We’ve been meeting since 2002!  Primarily now on ZOOM, the third Monday of the month with outings as desired throughout the year (for example: ice cream in June).  Our book choices are eclectic and we do try to squeeze at least one “classic” in during the year.  Our structure is very non-structured.  Get on the email list (contact Kathy Hintz at kathymsw@msn.com) to stay up to date on what we’re reading.  No meeting in December. Everyone is welcome.

Studies

We have a variety of adult studies that happen on Sunday morning and during the week.  These studies can be weekly, short-term/seasonal, bi-monthly, or long-term book studies, covering a wide variety of topics and interests.  Learn more

Women’s Ministries*

*Women’s Ministries is a historic term that we have chosen to retain as an umbrella shorthand for activities that are of interest to all women and those who identify as women and/or non-binary.  We hope you feel welcomed as attendee, participant, and leader!

Monthly Fellowship and Study: meetings are held primarily on ZOOM the first Monday of the month. We do try to meet in person at least once during the year!  We use a variety of study materials that explore the intersectionality of faith and the important social/political questions of the day.  We take an offering and have funds on hand for special projects or needs.  Get on the email list to see what we’re up to (contact Kathy Hintz at kathymsw@msn.com to be added).

Upper Midwest Women’s Fall Retreat: held annually in late September at Koronis Ministries in Paynesville, MN.  This is a beautiful accessible retreat facility on a lake where we can get away, be in nature, learn, play, and unwind Friday evening to Sunday afternoon.  Retreat typically has a theme, with a speaker, plus other short sessions of interest.  Registration materials and information about the program are available by August each year.
