Great Gatherings
Event Program with complete details about Great Gatherings
Secure your spot in one or more of a variety of fun group experiences! Great Gatherings are hosted by members of our community in the months following April 23 and are a great way to connect with other First U friends and members while having fun, learning, and socializing. How would you like to be one of 12 people to take part in Under the August Moon: An Intimate Evening with Kate Tucker and Ann Reed? Or attend a Women’s Literary Retreat at a cabin up north, or a Private Concert with Jim Scott? Or perhaps a Rock Climbing Day or Beer Tasting or Game Lovers Night is more your style. There’s sure to be something for everyone! For first pick (spots are limited), make sure to arrive at 5:30 p.m. so that you allow enough time to get registered and to be ready when sign up begins.
Live Auction Items
A professional auctioneer will add an extra element of excitement to this year’s live auction. Some of the enticing auction items that will be available include: a beautiful cherry bench crafted by Richard Helgeson (the same designer we’re working with on the new pulpit), your very own reserved parking space at church for one year, and more!
