Adult Faith Formation
At Fairmount Avenue UMC, we desire to be a joyful, welcoming community, igniting hearts and minds for God's work.
That's why get together to think about our faith, study the Bible, ask hard questions, and encourage one another along the way. With many ways to connect to God, the practice of faith inspires practical application of faith.
Wednesday Noon Bible Study: Join Pastor Shawna for a Bible study over Zoom. This fall we are discussing the Gospel according to John.

United Methodist Women
The organized unit of United Methodist Women shall be a community of women whose purpose is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; to develop a creative supportive fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church.
UMW Afternoon Circle- This group meets on the third Monday of the month at 1:30 p.m. from September through May. The focus of the meetings is both education and outreach. The studies this year have focused how to follow a lifelong journey of practicing forgiveness, restorative justice, and reconciliation in our lives. We have also explored the theology of mission and evangelism in the twenty-first century context of Christianity as a worldwide religion. This fall we will focus on a mission study of Haiti. Making No-Sew Blankets is the ongoing outreach project. These blankets are donated to Regions Hospital in Saint Paul or to the Saint Paul Council of Churches.
UMW Book Club- UMW book club meets regularly. Connect with the church office for details.
