Adult Ministry

Adult Spiritual Formation

There are several opportunities for Adults of all ages to get involved at First United Methodist Church of Gilbert. Opportunities vary from catching a softball game together, sharing lunch with friends to many bible study options. For the recent offerings, see the bulletin or the events calendar. We welcome everyone to pick an activity that will not only be enjoyable but will provide scripture and conversation to help you on your faith journey.

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God." ~ Colossians 3:16

What are some of the groups that are available?

These are some of our regular group meetings

We are a caring group of men and women, single or married or widowed, who are mostly retired. We meet together for social connection and checking in with each other. All are welcome to bring a sack lunch and enjoy a great time of Christian sharing, laughter, singing and Birthday celebrations. Come and nurture your spirit with us every Wednesday from 12:15 – 1:30 pm in room 136.

This Women’s Bible Study has been part of the First United Methodist Church of Gilbert for a long time, come and check us out!! We love to have new members be part of our exciting and rewarding bible study. It is never too late to come and join our group. This group of ladies represent all age levels and all different levels of bible knowledge, a great intergenerational bible study. We meet every Tuesday Morning from 9:15-11:15am.

Book Club meets the third Thursday of each month at 11:00 am. (During the summer, the location is determined among members each month.) Bring your own sack lunch to eat during the conversation. Books are chosen by the group and cover a wide range of interests. You do not need to read all the books, instead chose the one(s) you want to read and then attend that monthly meeting. This is a great way to meet people from the church who enjoy reading and discussing what they thought of the book. For any questions, please contact Judy Bristow, call or email the church office (480-892-9166)
