Please sign up here even if you can’t attend each week. We know that vacations and other events happen in the summer months! Each gathering will include sweet fellowship, discussion about that week’s chapter, and prayer. We will send you detailed information, including the address for the group you register to join, prior to the first meeting.

The summer conversation times are free, but we do recommend that you purchase your own copy of Ten Words to Live By.

The Thursday group at the Barn will include childcare. The Friday group is designed for women and the children in their lives (elementary school through high school) to engage in activities in nature, discuss the Ten Commandments, and pray together.

Meet our summer conversation leaders (* indicates those hosting park dates):

ThursdaY Park Dates

These will be hosted each Thursday this summer except July 15 and August 19 for women of all ages and stages with or without the children in their lives. Spend your lunch break with us as a way to connect mid-week with your sisters at UFC. Bring your littles — and not-so-littles — to get the wiggles out before nap time or afternoon activities! Invite your neighbors, coworkers, classmates, and others as we begin to practice what it looks like to live in community with one another.

A host will be at that week’s park from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., but don’t let that stop you from coming earlier or staying later. If weather becomes an issue, we suggest you check ufcwomen.blog’s social accounts or the main blog site, where we will list any cancellations or changes to the schedule.
