Ruth Circle
A friendship-building group – caring for each other’s joys and concerns. We are studying John Maxwell's "Wisdom From Women of the Bible," focusing on Biblical heroines such as Ruth, Sarah, Mary and others. We learn wisdom from these women as well as Christian leadership. We have served local ministries such as PADS, Outreach luncheons, and Christmas Sharing, and we support PCUSA through the Thank Offering and Birthday Offering.

Prayer Shawl Ministry
This ministry offers the opportunity for fellowship as well as providing a physical reminder of God's love and care to those who receive the prayer shawls we knit. The shawls are made of prayer, yarn and knit. The pattern is knit 3, purl 3, which represents the trinity. Teachers are available for those who want to learn to knit.
