United Women in Faith (formerly called United Methodist Women) is a 150+ year old worldwide organization of the United Methodist Church that operates at our church in the form of two "circles." These circles are committed to connecting and nurturing women through leadership development, creative fellowship, and education in order to inspire, influence and impact local and global communities. Activities include special programs, fund raising, and a popular annual Christmas event for women.
Both Circles meet on the second Monday of the month; the Lillie Parris Circle meets at 9:30 am and the Sara Circle meets at 5:30 pm, both in Room 1. Those interested are welcome to visit one or both circles at any time. Find your comfort zone!
If you are interested in (1) sharing YOUR talent and experience in any of the specific ministry areas mentioned above, OR (2) learning more about joining a Circle, please call the church office at 850-932-3594. Pamphlets with UWFaith information and phone numbers are available at the information desk at the church.
Joy Class
The Joy Class is a special ministry of Gulf Breeze United Methodist Church, designed to serve our special-needs adults and give them a place to learn and grow in the love and knowledge of God.
They are bused to and from church every Sunday morning. They attend the 9:30 Contemporary Worship service and then have class time with dedicated teachers who lead them in activities and spiritual growth. They truly are full of joy and bless our people as we worship alongside them.
