Ministries at Jolliff United Mothodist Church

Jolliff has many ministries for anyone and everyone.

Bible Study Classes

“The Bible is the greatest of all books; to study it is the noblest of all pursuits; to understand it, the highest of all goals.”
― Charles C. Ryrie

Bible

Brigge Bible Class

Sundays Starting at 9 am

Our class membership contains adults that are mature with a youthful spirit.  Our Christian faith and fellowship is shared through bible study, social gatherings and through missions in the community.  This Sunday School class takes a very active role working with the church’s annual fish fry – which is now twenty years in the making.  We also always remember our shut-ins with visits, flowers and gift baskets.  We are avid supporters of Jolliff’s scholarship fund and we also provide food baskets to families in need.  Our monthly meetings are to plan our goals and have social community time with one another.  The spiritual strength we gain by our friendship and Christian love makes our class worthy to belong. We welcome all who want to be a part of our class.

Faith Journey Class

Sundays Starting at 9 am starting Fall 2022

The Faith Journey class was founded while Jolliff was going through a little “growth spurt” as a number of new families joined the congregation in the early 1990’s. The name was given by our pastor at the time, Rev. Ben Hadley-Goggin, to describe the course of study we were undertaking at the time and after that, the name just stuck!
This is an eclectic Sunday School class, open to adults of all ages.  Our study themes vary from examinations of specific books in the Bible, Biblical themes, and Biblical history, but at the core of our conversations is the issue of “Christian living in the real world.”  Intermingled with that, we discuss the concerns of stresses of the workplace, raising children (and grandchildren), dealing with aging parents, relationships as couples, relations as singles; you name it.  We share a lot of laughter in our group and we laugh most heartily when we are laughing at ourselves. We share the leadership role between our members; practically all of us have led the study discussions at one time or another as we are called the Spirit (or each other)!

Youth Group

Calling all youth!
The Jolliff UMC Youth Group meets every other Wednesday from 7 to 8:30 in the Youth Lounge (upstairs) and is looking for more members (ages 12-17). Our meetings will be a time for us to play games, have some discussions on faith, and just hang out. Additionally, we will hold a mixture of volunteer and social activities every month so be sure to keep an eye on the schedule for specific events. All youth are welcomed and encouraged to bring friends from outside the church!
