FEATURES

Not Your Typical Church Experience at eleven:eleven celebration

More than a decade ago, FUMCFW introduced eleven:eleven celebration as an alternative worship opportunity that was distinctively nontraditional and unorthodox in style.

Journey of Dementia

Bring your lunch at 11:30 am — or dinner at 5:30 pm — and we’ll watch together this informative and entertaining DVD featuring international dementia care pioneer Teepa Snow. This session will help us to understand more about the journey of dementia for those who have it and those who love them. It is a way to begin equipping ourselves to provide support for those in our faith community facing the Journey of Dementia. Read more.
