Affinity Nights Are Coming Back
As you may well know, our focus for this year has been connection. The pandemic, in particular, has disconnected us in so many ways that it made us worry about whether we would ever feel connected to others, to God, and to the wider community in the same way again. We are seeking to combat that worry, and facilitate connection through Affinity Nights this Spring! You may remember our winter iteration of Affinity Nights, and it was so successful, we are going to start them up again for 8 weeks this spring.
We will continue to have a potluck dinner all together at 6pm, and will send folks off to their desired class, affinity group, activity, or other gathering at 7pm. Spring Affinity Nights will begin Wednesday, April 19th!
More information is forthcoming, but the ask right now is this:
Could your team, group, or class start meeting on Wednesday nights? We'd love to have full tables, crossover between affinity groups in the church, and a building full of resources and opportunities for those already and not yet connected to our church, easily accessible and consistently available. If this is something you are interested in knowing more about, and/or would like for your group to plan to meet Wednesday nights (does not have to be every Wednesday night) please talk with Pastor Alexa (pastoralexa@fumcoly.org).
