Our Fellowship Ministry is one of building and maintaining relationships; of making sure that others are welcomed and loved at our table. Our ministry is carried out through acts of compassion like phone calls, deliveries, food, handmade crafts, and personal visits.
Our beloved Quilters meet every Tuesday, except for holidays, in the fellowship hall. Their crafts are sold multiple times a year to raise money for charity, scholarships, and transit tickets that help folks get to church. They'll usually bring snacks and make a pot of coffee, and crafters of any kind are welcome to bring their crafts along and join them. New folks of all ages, talents, and crafty interests are welcome to stop by from 9:30am-noon!
We feel it's important for others to feel loved and appreciated on their birthdays! If you would like to receive a card on your birthday, please call the office at (530) 895-3754 and let us know when it is. Conversely, let us know if you're somebody who wants to make out and send cards!
Around the time the pandemic started, we realized just how important human interaction was. Masked and social-distanced, we started delivering CDs of the sermon to folks who, because of the dangers of COVID, could not attend church. Eventually we started delivering other things like flowers, cards, snacks, even groceries! Beyond that, our parishioners began asking if they could help others, especially our senior and diasbled parishioners, get to doctor visits or the store.
Coffee Hour. Coffee hour takes place after church on most Sundays. Stick around after worship and grab a cup of joe or a decaf! Coffee hour is for all ages, and juice boxes are available for the kiddos.
Meal Trains. Meal Trains are created when one of our members are ill and need assistance with dinners. Members of Faith order out or home-cook meals for the duration of the Meal Train.
Bake Sales. Bake Sales take place multiple times a year and are usually put on by the Women's Ministry to raise money for scholarships, and paratransit tickets that help members get to church.
Funeral Luncheons. These luncheons are lovingly put together by groups of parishioners here at Faith. The goal is to show love and compassion during the greiving period of the deceased's loved ones; to ease the burden of dealing with all things kitchen-related during a funeral; and to honor the person we are remembering that day.
Our Women's Ministry is a friendly and creative ministry. Each year, it hosts boutiques, and the money accrued funds scholarships for students and buys paratransit tickets to help folks get to church. The Men's Ministry is one that delights in fellowship and good food, and meets on Friday mornings for breakfast. And Alphabet Soup, our queer group, meets about once a month for food, fellowship, and games.
