Weekly group discussions of human personality with Reverend Scott
Fellowship is a church word. Rarely heard outside of "church" talk. It has strong roots in the ancient Greek language used to write the bible. We talk about Fellowship Groups and name our second largest room Fellowship Hall. Acts 2:42 describes the first Christians like this: “They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” Those items are still on the Church's menu including fellowship because it is vital and nourishing to human life.
Come to First UMC Erie at noon on the first Thursday of May. May 1st will be the last TNT of the season. Join us for great music, with lunch and fellowship afterward. For more information, go to our music page.
