Women's Groups
Monday Afternoon Moms, Bring your own lunch (kids included)! We are a group of moms gathered together to deepen our relationship with Christ and each other. Currently we are studying Andy Stanley's Guardrails. Please email Ann Orchard, the group's facilitator, for more information about joining this group.
Saturday Morning Book Club, Riviera’s Book Club is a small group of women (all ages and stages!) who meet at 8:00 a.m. one Saturday morning a month at Panera (4th Street, North location) for fellowship and discussion of the current book selection. All books are faith based; recent selections have included: Reckless Faith; Magdalene; I Dared to Call Him Father; Mistaken Identity; Escape; Dreamers, among others. Members suggest books to be read that strive to educate and/or encourage us in our daily walk with Christ and in our desire to follow in the path He leads. Discussions serve to help us grow in our relationship to Christ and each other. Orders for the books are placed; participants purchase one for themselves or locate a copy at the library. Paula Miklos is the facilitator of this group. Please contact Paula Miklos for more information at 727-527-6466.
United Methodist Women, The purpose of the UMW is to know God and to experience freedom as whole persons through Jesus Christ; to develop a creative, supportive fellowship; and to expand concepts of mission through participation in the global ministries of the church. We invite all ladies of the church to attend our meetings and become a part of this ministry at Riviera. The Lydia/Love Circle meets at the church the fourth Thursday of the month (January - April, September & October) at 9:30 a.m. November we meet the third Thursday and December the second Thursday at the same time. Our May meeting is our annual picnic. Please contact UMW President Sarah Kopp for more information at 727-527-6466.
