Small Groups

Come and Join one of our Small Groups!


Participating in small groups gives us a chance to develop relationships with other people as we learn more about the Christian faith and how we live our faith on a day-by-day basis. These groups are a safe place to ask questions, share our thoughts, and simply be who we are joined with others who are on this journey of faith. We would love to have you join us and share you views. 

Learning opportunity with Community Unity Steering team led by LIfewiseStL Urban Forum Team

The Community Unity Steering Team is inviting MUMC church leadership to join them in a series of learning experiences led by the Lifewise STL Urban Forum Team. These classes will help inform our next steps forward. Classes will have an emphasis on the impact of race and the information presented will be tailored to fit the needs of the MRH school district area. This will be an eye opening experience for many of us to step into the shoes of those who are in need of additional support. Hopefully, these classes will help us to learn what kind of support families need.

Roll of the Dice

March 3   &  March 10th

Intergroup Monopoly is an action teaching game that modifies the classic Monopoly board game to explore the dynamics of group-based inequality. The goals of this session will be to illustrate the structural dynamics and consequences of intergroup inequalities, illuminate the interdependencies between income and housing, and engage the need for interventions that actively address the enduring effects of prior group-based disadvantages.
