United Women in Faith (UWF)
(formerly United Methodist Women)
The women of our church and several others gather together monthly to witness and participate in the transformation of communities, and primarily for children and families. Front Street UMC has several active circles (small groups within the full UWF).

Men's Breakfast Study Bible Group
Tuesday mornings (Sept. - May)
8:00-9:30 a.m.
Dedicated Christian men gather each week to dive deeper into understanding what truths scripture holds for their lives (often led by own of our own resident biblical scholars). They enjoy breakfast (provided) and fellowship. You don’t have to be interested in all three to come and join their fun.
Tuesday Morning Women's Bible Study
Tuesday mornings (Sept. - May) 10:00-11:00 a.m.
Faithful Christian women join together to climb higher in their knowledge of scripture and the power of Christ offered to them (another resident biblical scholar often leads). These women lead holy lives and many are found in leadership roles across the church. If you are interested in the Bible, biblical stories, or themed discussions, then this is the place for you.
Congregational Care
Prayer Shawl Ministry
3rd Thursday of the month at 10:00 am in Room 405
Prayer Shawls are knitted or crocheted by members of this ministry and distributed to those who are ill, celebrating new life, facing challenges, or just have a need to know that someone cares and the church is surrounding them in the prayers knitted into the shawls.
Anyone who loves to knit or crochet or wants to learn (some patterns are easy for beginners) and to use your skills in a prayer ministry is welcome.
Prayer Ministry Team
1st and 3rd Thursday at 9:30 am in Room 402/Zoom
The Prayer Team does some of our most important and amazing work in the church. Every other week they gather together to pray on behalf of many people and whatever celebrations or hardships they may have. These prayers are shared on Sunday mornings, through emails, on facebook, in person, over the phone and they come from locals and even friends spread across the globe. People who share their prayers are assured they are never alone in approaching God for help. These are our resident saints.
Visitation Ministry
Visitation Ministries is where we honor and love our most amazing members. They’re amazing for several reasons. Some of them have been faithful members of the church by their service for several decades. Some of them, despite sickness or ableness, still support the church with their prayers and gifts. Some of them aren’t able to join with our gatherings in body, and yet fervently seek ways to remain connected in presence! All of them have been miraculous examples of witness to Jesus Christ in the world. That is why we do our best to stay involved in their lives to dispel the pains of loneliness and isolation in whatever their circumstances. Visitation ministries is vital spiritual care.
