Fellowship
The Kirk's Fellowship Committee brings our busy community together for fellowship that strengthens our faith as individuals and our mission as a church. Dinner for Six or Eight, Couples Bridge, Golf Scrambles and annual All Kirk Dinner are ways to enjoy each other's company as well as form lasting friendships. Each member of the Kirk belongs to a Shepherd Group, which plans regular outings that take advantage of some of the many opportunities for recreation in this beautiful area. Presbyterian Women meets five times a year for Circle meetings and five times a year for Gatherings. The Kirk's Men's Association meets monthly September through May to enjoy a short devotion, coffee and donuts, lively conversation and listen to a variety of interesting speakers.
