A Place to Belong .. A place to Become
FELLOWSHIP MINISTRIES

Adult Fellowship Opportunities:

Popovers – If you like fellowship and food, then this group is for you. All who sign up are divided into groups of four couples. Singles are welcome too! These groups will meet in September, October, January, and February. New groups are put together for each month. The first name on the list is the host couple. They pick a date and contact the others. The host couple provides the meat dish, beverages and potatoes, if needed. The second name on the list brings bread and vegetables. The third name on the list brings a salad and the fourth name on the list provides dessert.  Watch for an opportunity to sign up each August in “the green sheet.” 

Christian Fellowship – This fellowship groups meets the first Friday of the month at 12:00 noon for a prepared lunch followed by a devotion and a varied program.  It’s a great way to share an hour in fellowship!   

Sports – First Lutheran hosts various sports opportunities throughout the year.  In the summer time, the FLC Stars Softball team plays in a church league. 

L.I.F.T. (Lutherans In Fellowship Together) – This group gathers on the 4th Thursday of the month for a potluck meal at 6:00.  Everyone is asked to bring a dish to share and their own table service.  Following the meal, the rest of the evening is spent in fellowship playing card games and board games. 

Solos – After the inspiration of Sunday mornings, single and widowed women enjoy continuing the fellowship.   So they gather with friends to share a Sunday meal at 11:45 am, usually at local restaurant.   You’re welcome to join this group simply by showing up!  Plans are made three months in advance and circulated to participating members, as well as being announced in each Messenger. 

 

Fellowship Trips –  
  Nebraska and Western Iowa are chock full of fascinating places to visit. This is your invitation to hop on the small bus with other adults and visit a few of these spots once a month. We have so many choices of places to see and people to meet we hardly know where to start, but here's a partial list of places in the mix: Governors Mansion, State Capitol, University of Nebraska Sport Complex, Sheldon Art Gallery, Ashfall Fossil Beds, Homestead National Monument, Stuhr Museum of the Prairie Pioneers, Ponca State Park, Mahoney State Park, Air and Space Museum, Loess Hills, Durham Museum, Joslyn Museum - the list is almost endless. 

   We will try to take these little adventures on the fourth Tuesday of the month - when that works out with the places being visited. We will not attempt to travel in late December, January or February. Cost will be the charge for admissions and a five dollar bus use fee. We will try to find interesting places to eat either lunch or dinner. Most travel will be during the daylight hours. That's all. Friends of First Lutheran Members are welcome aboard. We will need at least 12 travelers to make expenses each month. Look for a poster in the Fellowship Hall with places and dates for 2011 soon. Sign ups will be at the Welcome Center.
