United Methodist Men - The Methodist Men's Group meets the second Wednesday of each month at 7:00PM. We always have a wonderful home cooked meal fresh from the garden of our Master Chef Glenn Nelson. We have a devotion, led by one of the men, which relates the Christian faith to the life and work of men. But, mostly, we have fun and fellowship, laughing and getting to know each other.
The Methodist Men are also deeply involved in missions. In 2002 we received an award from the State Legislature for helping to feed rural electric line workers during the ice storm. Other missions have included, but are not limited to, providing medicine for a young girl who was bitten by a rabid skunk, whose family could not afford the high cost of the medicine, and providing financial support for the Indian Mission Work near Tahlequah.
The Men's group also has several fund-raisers to pay for their mission projects. We have a food booth at Pioneer Days, smoke ribs to sell occasionally, and are best known for our "Whole Hog Dinner" in April.
United Methodist Women - The United Methodist Women is a community of women whose primary purpose is to know God, and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; and to develop a creative, supportive fellowship, and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the Church. The United Methodist Women meet the second Tuesday of each month except for August (vacation month) at 12:30 p.m. in Fellowship Hall. They have a program and of course, a dessert! All women are invited to attend these meetings.
CHUMS - Christians Having United Methodist Socials - CHUMS is our fellowship group for retired adults. They meet on the second Thursday of each month at 6:00PM for a potluck dinner, dominoes and card games. They also meet at a local restaurant for breakfast or lunch most months. Four or five times a year, we load up in our Church People Mover and take a day trip to some Oklahoma tourist sight.
