Meeting in the Gathering Space at the rear of the sanctuary, we address special issues, perhaps in the form of a group study of a relevant topic or book.

Wednesday 6:00pm you are invited to a Fellowship Meal in the Gathering Space (rear of the sanctuary). Bring a potluck dish to share as we become better acquainted in a casual setting. Come whether or not you bring food, always more than enough! Bring a friend! (Family activity)

ADULT CHOIR. As of Jan 2008, our Adult Classical Choir is on hiatus, following retirement of the Director. For those for whom music is an important part of worship, both as makers and as listeners, there are other opportunities.

SOLOISTS AND GROUPS. We are blessed to have many people with musical talent who volunteer to provide special music, both instrumental and vocal.

MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT. Both piano and a fine Moeller pipe organ are used for congregational singing, offertory, prelude and postlude. Following Mennonite tradition, we sometimes sing four-part acapella hymns. Four part singing is encouraged, though certainly not required!

The Mennonite Central Committee has an annual "relief" sale at a suitable location, usually on the first weekend in August. First Mennonite is no longer responsible for the pancake and sausage breakfast at 6:30-10:30 that feeds about 1000 hungry people. We enjoy attending and enjoy the fellowship and the realization that we are giving significant help to a good cause.
