For a number of years, FUMC has been the charter organization for Boy Scout Troop 298. Rick Moninghoff has faithfully served as the scoutmaster, with a number of church members supporting the troop in various roles. The Troop is in danger of losing its charter because there are currently not enough of the required number of adults serving in leadership. At this point the troop is small in number, but there are two boys who are working hard to complete their Eagle Scout requirements. If you would be willing to help in some way, please contact Rick Moninghoff.

Sister's Bible Study
Women of all ages - you are invited to pick up the book we are reading in Sisters over the winter and will discuss in one session in a few weeks (exact date to be determined depending on winter weather).
The book is What's So Amazing About Grace?, by Phillip Yancey. Books are available in the church office for $10.
"Yancey offers compelling, true portraits of grace’s life-changing power. He searches for its presence in his own life and in the church. He asks, How can Christians contend graciously with moral issues that threaten all they hold dear? And he challenges us to become living answers to a world that desperately wants to know, What’s So Amazing About Grace?"
