Retired & Re-Fired Group
|
Members of the Retired and Re-Fired Small Group have a wealth of experiences that make our meetings very interesting. We are learning so much about one another as we share our personal stories. We’re a group of really interesting and “Neat” people, and I’m so thankful I have the opportunity to really know them.
Sharing and mutual support is the main focus of our meetings, but we also have some Bible study, prayer, and a topic for each meeting. Our meetings are held on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month at Noon in the Serenity Room. Lunch is provided for the first meeting of the month, but please bring your own lunch to the second one. If you are retired or semi-retired, we’d love to have you join our group. Come and get re-fired for the next chapter of your life. Contact Mary Gensler at 608-482-2753 for more information. |
September update:
The summer break is over, and it’s time to get fired up again! I have missed our time together to work, study, and share food and fellowship.
Our first meeting of the fall season will be at noon on Monday, September 11 in the Fellowship Hall. We’ll welcome new friends to our group as well as ones already taking part! Join us as we plan our activities for the fall and winter. Subway sandwiches, chips, and lemonade will be provided! Give me a call at 608-482-2753 to let me know how many to expect. Thank you!
Remember, God has a plan for each and every one of us to give us hope and a future. May God bless you and guide you until we meet again!
August update:
In this busy season where work, vacations, family get-togethers and sporting events all seem to compete for our time and attention, let us pause for a moment to give thanks for all our blessings. It was about a year ago that Pastor Maria joined our church family and we give thanks for the leadership, devotion, energy, kindness, and patience that she has shown to us. Her ministry is a blessing to us all! Please pray for her, her family, and her ministry here and at Hazel Green United Methodist Church.
Even though our group is on break until September, we’ll continue to celebrate and lift up those folks in our age bracket that have birthdays and anniversaries. On our birthday list for July are Steve Leitzinger (7/7), Janet Monahan (7/13), Duane Wedige (7/24), and Tom Teutschmann (7/26). Celebrating their birthday in August are Debbie Gierke (8/11), Brenda Johnson (8/13), Bob Edge (8/18), Fred Gustafson (8/21), Robert Unbehaun (8/24), Lisa Diedrich (8/26), and Ed Gierke (8/28). May God bless them and keep them throughout the year ahead.
I look forward to resuming our group meetings with lunch at noon on September 11th. May God bless you and guide you until we meet again!
July update:
Happy Summer!!! Holiday season has begun with graduations, the end of the school year, and summer vacations all on the horizon. It’s the time of year where Retired & Re-Fired group will go on Summer Break.
We were able to exceed our goal in the Care Kits. We ended up with 27 kits to take to Annual Conference. Thank you to all who contributed to them and helped pack them up.
Our next meeting will be on September 11 at noon in the Fellowship Hall. Bring your own lunch; coffee and tea will be provided.
May God bless you and guide you until we meet again!
