Building Community
Many groups at ELAM meet for friendship, social times, and a bit of service to the church and the community.
Active Spirit Yoga
This group meets Fridays at 1 p.m. under the leadership of a professional yoga instructor. Sessions go for eight weeks. There is a $50 charge.
Anglican Church Women (ACW)
The ACW meets regularly on the first and third Tuesdays of the month at 1:00 pm. The women have time of fellowship together as well as hosting special events such as card parties, fashion shows, and other events throughout the year.
Men's Fellowship Group
The Men's Fellowship Group meets regularly once a month,sometimes for a time of fellowship, sometimes just with the guys, sometimes with spouses. The men also run about four fundraising dinners a year and run a recycling program for pop cans, pie plates ad aluminum foil to purchase supplies for the church.
Newcomer Ministry
Assisting visitors to feel comfortable and become full members of ELAM, team members coordinate follow up phone calls or visits with new members. They produce this Newcomer Package, as well as other vital aspects of welcoming a visitor or new member to ELAM.
Quilters Group
The quilters meet every Monday from 9:30 am to 2:00 pm at the church to work on quilts, although some who aren't quilters bring their knitting and join the group for the company. Quilters can be asked to make or repair quilts for you. They also work on quilts for organizations such as the Women's Community House and Mission Services.
Small Group Ministry
Several small groups have been started in an effort to ensure that nobody at ELAM stands alone. These groups of six to twelve people meet regularly in a nurturing environment for fellowship, prayer, and Bible study to grow together as the body of Christ, foster a sense of community and get to know fellow parishioners.
