Volunteers must be available on a Friday morning for this ministry.

Sisters in Faith : One Saturday a month for breakfast (September through May)
This group is open to all women of the congregation and their female family members and friends. The group meets once a month on a Saturday morning for breakfast, fellowship and conversation. The purpose is to grow closer to one another as we grow closer to God while remaining open and welcoming to new faces and ideas. Topics of discussion evolve around books or issues that affect our daily lives. A fall weekend retreat is also offered.
Men In Mission: The Men in Mission group is dedicated to grow our faith in God and to love others. From September through May we meet on the fourth Saturday of every month for breakfast at the Railside Restaurant here in Hanover at 9:00 AM. We have a short business meeting, a program/speaker, or a short Bible Study. We also sponsor various programs to raise funds to help kids go to camp. We invite you to become involved and help us serve our congregation and community. Everyone is invited.
