Adult Ministries
Small Groups for Study & Support
Mondays at 6:30 pm, April 6–May 11
Looking for a faithful, practical approach to money? Join Saving Grace, a six-week study that helps people of faith build healthier relationships with money and align their finances with their spiritual values. Rooted in principles from the United Methodist Church tradition, this study includes simple worksheets, budgeting tools, discussion, and optional video content. Facilitated by Sherry Bumgardner, all are welcome ~ no financial expertise required.
Please share your interest in participating with Heather Steffey, 704-864-3222 ext. 105, or Heather@MyersMemorialUMC.org. Books will be available to order as we approach the study date.
Tuesdays at 6:30p, Begining March 3
This study, facilitated by Pastor Andy, meets on Tuesdays at 6:30pm in Room CFC106. Inspired by Dr. John McGill’s work on emotional intelligence, each scripture-centered session creates space for meaningful conversation, reflection, and curiosity as we cultivate gratitude in everyday life. An electronic copy of the study will be provided during the first week.
If you are longing for a faith-filled pause and a deeper awareness of God’s gifts, this study is a beautiful place to begin.
To share your interest, contact Heather Steffey, Ministry Coordinator, at Heather@MyersMemorialUMC.org or 704-864-3222 ext. 105

Alzheimer’s Support Groups play a vital role in a caregiver’s well-being. They offer something you can’t find in books or casual conversations—a blend of shared experience, emotional support, and practical knowledge.
It’s also a place to simply exhale. Caregivers often feel more comfortable opening up to others who aren’t directly involved—people who truly understand and listen without judgment, because they’ve “been there” too.
