Forget-Me-Nots2Forget-Me-Nots (Mature Single Women)

This Christian fellowship group is for mature (55+) single ladies from both the church and the community-at-large. They meet  for activities,  potluck meals, or a special program featuring a Christian speaker. Their purpose is to meet and develop friendships with other interesting single women, to strengthen each other in their faith in Jesus Christ, and to have some laughs and fun together on a bi-monthly basis. New widows are especially welcome to receive hugs, love and support.
