SUMMARY:Good Friday Service
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, April 3\, 2026\n7:00 pm | Sanctuary\nTenebrae\, meaning “service of shadows” or “darkness\,” is a solemn retelling of Christ’s final hours through liturgy\, Scripture\, and music. This meaningful service gradually descends into darkness and concludes with the tearing of the veil and total silence. In remembering the cross\, we hold fast to the mystery that through suffering comes peace\, and through death\, new life.

SUMMARY:UMW Sunday
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, September 21\, 2025\n9:00 am – 12:30 pm | During the Gathering and Traditional Worship\nCelebrate in the Gathering and Traditional worship services.\nInformation tables in the garden area.\n\nWhat is UMW?\nUnited Methodist Women is a large denominational faith organization committed to the service and support of women\, youth\, and children in need within our community and church. They give countless hours of volunteer service to various organizations and financial support as well. Most importantly\, we are a community of women who develop authentic and supportive friendships. UMW is one large organization and also has smaller groups\, or “Circles.” for members to belong. No matter your personality\, age\, stage of life or schedule\, there is a Circle for you! The isolation of our busy modern lives has led many\, even those who know many people\, to be lonely. Because we were created by God to be in community with Him and with others\, being part of a community is as important as food\, water and shelter to our mental and physical health. This year\, our UMW will be focused on Community: friendship\, faith and service. Our hope is for every woman to be in community where she has authentic friendships\, people who are there for her family\, grow our faith together and serve one another and those in need\, together. We hope that you if you do not have that kind of Community\, you will join us on UMW Sunday to learn more about what it means to be in authentic community with others and how UMW can help you find yours.The UMW women will be in the garden with information between and after services. So please join us for children’s activities\, information about UMW\, treats and the chance to find the Circle that’s right for you.You may also find more information all year long on our webpage fumcfw.org/umw and on our social media channels @umwfumcfw.

We’d love to see you there!
