Fellowship

If we are to be part of God’s family, then we have to get to know each other!

Here are some ways to meet the people of Messiah Lutheran Church

Sunday Morning Coffee Fellowship
(Messiah Mugs)

Women’s Book & Social Club

Sunday at 9:45 a.m.
Fellowship Hall

Coffee, tea, and laid-back conversation are provided!
Donuts provided on the third Sunday of the month.
Meets 2nd Monday of each month, September through May
Messiah women gather to discuss recently read selected books on Christian themes.  
Locations and start times vary and are announced via e-news.  

MoMs (Men of Messiah)

Meets Monthly
Meets 4th Tuesday of the month at various restaurants, pubs, and tap-rooms.
Locations and times vary and are announced via e-news. Men of all ages are welcome.

Pub Theology

Twice Monthly: 
First (drinks only) and Third Tuesdays (with potluck dinner)
6:30 p.m.

The format is simple: Beer, Conversation, and God.
Whether you're exploring faith, philosophy, or life's big questions, this is your chance to share, listen, and enjoy a drink (soda, tea, beer, or wine). Every voice is valued, and all perspectives are welcome. Engage with people from diverse religious traditions, philosophical perspectives, and life experiences. It's more than just a discussion—it's a journey of shared discovery and mutual respect.

Foodies 2.0

Meets Quarterly
Groups of up to four or five households meet to share meals from September to May (ideally four times). Food does not have to be fancy or gourmet! Groups can choose to meet up at local restaurants or other venues that allow your own food. The main goal of Foodies 2.0 is to gather as small groups for a meal and to get to know one another. There is no hosting requirement, and planning is shared across the group members.

Wednesday Night Meals

Wednesday at 5:30 p.m
Fellowship Hall 

Come only for dinner, or stick around afterwards for Wednesday night programming. A suggested donation given at the door helps offset meal expenses.

Lenten Soup Suppers

Wednesday during Lent at 5:30 p.m
Fellowship Hall

During Lent, Wednesday Night Meals transform into a soup potluck, followed by Lenten service at 7 p.m.

Other Fellowship Activities

  • Potluck Luncheons
    We couldn’t be Lutherans without them!

  • Church Picnic / Rally Day
    The annual church picnic is held in conjunction with Sunday School Rally Day, which celebrates the start of the new Sunday School year.

  • Receptions and Special Events
    We welcome new members quarterly. The receptions give everyone a chance to meet and get to know one another.

  • Halloween Costume Party and Chili Cook-off
    A long-running Messiah tradition, members prepare and share their best chili recipe in hopes of receiving the “Best Chili” award.  Children’s activities include a Halloween costume contest, games, and activities.
