Women’s Bible Study – Monday Evening

The Monday night group is on summer break but will return for a new study in September. We are exploring hybrid meetings in-person and on Zoom every Monday at 6:30pm (except the first Monday of the month, when meet at Church at 5:30 to fill bins for Backpack Buddies and do fellowship).

Our most recent study was What’s So Amazing About Grace? by Philip Yancey. Contact Mary Ann Myers to connect. Drop-ins are welcome — each session has a stand-alone message.

Mondays at 6:30pm

Pastor Jason's Class

Each Tuesday, Pastor Jason leads Bible classes at Ashby Ponds apartment complex. These sessions are recorded and put on YouTube so that you can follow along as part of the in-person small group or later online at your convenience. Recent topics have included Exodus and Genesis and Psalms. Subscribe to our YouTube channel so you never miss a class.

Led by Galilee’s senior pastor, Jason Duley. Contact jason.duley@galileeumc.org for more information. Tuesday mornings in person at Ashby Ponds or at your convenience online.

Tuesday Night Sisterhood

The Tuesday Night Sisterhood has had so many friends pop in since we started Zooming during Covid. We’d love to have you join us, too.

Our current study is called It’s All Under Control by Jennifer Dukes Lee.

Email grow.coordinator@galileeumc.org to join the group or for more information. We welcome participants from anywhere and from any background.

Wednesday Women's Bible Study

“As we return from summer break, the Wednesday Women’s Group is studying Who Is the Holy Spirit? by Stonecroft Bible Studies. Discover the Helper who is always there for you–the Holy Spirit, who works in perfect harmony with God the Father and Jesus the Son.”

The group meets in person in the church on Wednesday, 9:30-11:00am. To join the group or for any other questions, contact Emilie.

Thursday Morning Son-Rise Men's Group

The Son-Rise Men’s Group are early risers meeting at 6:30 am on Thursdays at Galilee. In October, they begin a study of Prepare The Way For The Lord by Adam Hamilton.

For information and links to access this group, please email tim.frank@galileeumc.org.

Facilitated by Dave LeRoy and Seth Campbell. Thursdays at 6:30am at the church and via Zoom.

Sister's In Christ

Sisters in Christ is a Thursday morning women’s Bible study meeting the first and third Thursday mornings of each month from 10 to 11:30am.

“Our first meeting this fall will be on Sept 15. We are hoping we can do a combination of Zoom and in-person meeting in the Adult Flex room. We’ll be studying Courage written by Tom Berlin. This book describes the elements of courage based on Jesus and His call to brave faith. There will be six lessons on the following dates: Sept 15, Oct 6 and 20, Nov 3 and 17, and Dec 1 with our Christmas brunch on the 15th.”

Led by Marcia Martin. Contact info@galileeumc.org for information about joining. Thursday mornings (first and third of the month).

“No Prep Required” Thursday Nights

No Prep Required is vital, virtual small group meeting on Thursday nights at 7pm. They have conversations about faith that you can drop in on. The conversation is topical and tropical—because Chris and Stephanie host this Zoom small group from their home in Costa Rica!

Facilitated by Chris Richter

Galilee Book Club

The Galilee Book Club isn’t a group reading Christian books, we’re a group of Christians reading books. We choose one title a month and meet for a potluck dinner and discussion at 5:00pm on the fourth Sunday of the month. Led by Chris Smith, Mario Brathwaite and Jen Shah.

Our next meeting is Sunday, October 23, when we will discuss The Stranger in the Lifeboat by Mitch Albom. We’ll meet at Galilee in the Adult Flex room @ 5:00pm.

Contact Chris Smith at chris.smith@galileeumc.org for information and to let us know you are coming. All are welcome.

Young Adult Group

All 18+ young adults are encouraged to connect through the Young Adults small group. We get together regularly to catch up on life through meals, outtings or just talking about life.

The next event is a Young Adult Social in the Galilee Youth Center on Monday, September 19 at 7pm.

There is no set meeting schedule, so subscribe to eNews or watch the Events or Youth Ministry pages for announcements.

To be added to an email mailing list or for more information contact Lisa.Collins@galileeumc.org. We look forward to meeting you!
