Women of Faith

This group is for women who want to learn and grow in knowledge and understanding of themselves and others, deepen their faith, share their witness, and support one another through book study, discussion, and prayer.

Meetings are held on the 2nd Monday of each month at 1:15 p.m. in the church conference room from September until May.

In May, Women of Faith will meet on Monday, May 13, in the CUMC Community Room at 1:15 p.m. to discuss the final two chapters in A Message of Hope from the Angels. The group will choose a new book for next fall, decide on the date and location for June's luncheon, and consider the dates and locations for summer fellowship coffee meet-ups. Questions and R.S.V.P.'s go to Barbara Ridgely.

Men's Study Group

This group is for men who wish to develop fellowship with other faith-minded gentlemen.  Religious-oriented books are often a topic of discussion but the group is primarily focused on camaraderie.  

Meetings are held at 7:00 a.m. every Thursday at PJ Piper's Pancake House, W61 N514 Washington Avenue, Cedarburg. Coffee and/or breakfast is optional but discussion is not.

This month the men will start reading and discussing a book that is appropriate for our times: Not in It to Win It: Why Choosing Sides Sidelines The Church by Andy Stanley.  Is it possible to disagree politically and love unconditionally?  The reaction of evangelicals to political and cultural shifts in recent years revealed what they value most.  Lurking beneath our Bible-laced rhetoric, faith claims, books, commentaries in the media, and sermons are a relentless drive to WIN!

But the church is not here to win. By every human measure, our Savior lost.  He lost on and with a purpose.  And we are in it for something else entirely.  That something else is what this book is about. The author, Andy Stanley is an acclaimed televangelist, author, and founder and senior pastor of North Point Ministries in Alpharetta, GA.  In this book Andy will help us discover how to take a stand the right way, how to view politics and our religious beliefs through the lens of faith, and how the life of Jesus and his teaching applies to modern-day challenges in a fresh way.

 Jesus never asked his followers to agree on everything.  But he did call his followers to obey a new command: to love others in the same way he has loved us. Instead of asserting our rights or fighting for power, we need to begin asking ourselves: what does love require of me?

We invite all men to join on Thursday mornings at 7:00 a.m. at PJ Piper's.  There is lots of room at our table; come and enjoy a breakfast or just coffee as we us discuss this critical topic and enjoy each other’s company!
