This is a question John Wesley (founder of Methodism) encouraged his followers to ask one another. He wanted people to know each other beyond the casualness of “weather and health” and connect at a deeper level. At Minnehaha we have a number of small/soul groups that encourage people to come together for study and personal connections. You are welcomed and encouraged to join these groups at any time. Read on for a list of active groups.

For those of us at Minnehaha who have borrowed items from the church, and despite our best intentions, have neglected to return them; or, perhaps, we are embarrassed by the length of time those items have stayed at our homes – now is your chance to bring them back!

During October you are encouraged to bring in library books, videos, hymnals, pans, measuring bowls, hand towels, coffee urns, tools, YOURSELF, anything you have been meaning to return to the church – no questions asked.

September has been an exciting time for the Building Committee. The architects, Cermak Rhoades, took the information they gathered from all of us and presented us with a variety of options. In the first go round no costs were discussed, the sky was the limit, and some of the concepts were very extreme. With careful efforts the options were narrowed to three plans which incorporate the essential programs and priorities of our congregation. The architects are now working with the appropriate professionals to prepare these plans, with their costs, for presentation to the entire Minnehaha Family during October.
