Adult Opportunities at Second United

Sermon & Conversation Study Monday @ 11:00AM- Noon with Pastor Betsy

Second UMC seeks to build a community of deeply committed followers of Jesus Christ. One of the ways we deepen our relationship with Jesus Christ is through the study of scripture and conversation with each other. Each Monday, we gather to explore deeper the Sunday morning scripture passage. All are welcome.

To participate in the small group, provide your name and email address.

Women’s Ministries

We have several opportunities for women to join together in fellowship and ministry. This ministry aims to both challenge and equip women in pursuing God.

Join other senior adults for a meal and fellowship. Several times a year seasoned saints share a delicious meal, play bingo or trivia and have a whole lot of fun. Check The Spire for the next event or email 2umc@comcast.net

The Worship of God is our central focus. With men, women, youth, and children from all walks of life sharing their musical talents in worship each week. We also have an active Hand Bell Choir that is a great blessing to our worship.  Contact Jan Hudson @  jlhudson@utk.edu to learn more!
