FUMC’s Young at Heart group gathers for themed fellowship, music and celebration

Members of First United Methodist Church’s Young at Heart group gathered for their monthly meeting, held the first Wednesday of each month at 11 a.m., featuring a festive and creative theme organized by the Faith Circle.

This month’s gathering combined elements of several holidays, with decorations highlighting Valentine’s Day, Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day and fall pumpkin accents, creating a colorful and lively atmosphere for attendees.

The group also recognized several birthdays during the meeting. Celebrated were Gloria Bryant, Kenny Megason and Murlene Parker. Mary Fosson was also recognized but was not present for the photo as she assisted in the kitchen.

As part of the group’s tradition, two newcomers were welcomed to the event and received a complimentary meal, while returning members contributed by bringing a covered dish or paying $5.

Entertainment for the meeting was provided by Steve Wells, who performed music on keyboard. In addition to the church gathering, Wells regularly performs Sunday afternoons from noon to 3 p.m. at the Flying Heart Brewery on Mill Street.

The Young at Heart group continues to provide an opportunity for fellowship, food and entertainment for members of the community each month.
