Meetings are held the second Saturday of each month throughout the year at Asbury Place Maryville (formerly Asbury Acres). The meetings begin at 8:30 a.m. with breakfast. Around 9:00 a.m. the men gather for a time of devotion and a brief business meeting that usually ends by 10:00 a.m. Often the group goes on to work on a scheduled project.

 

Fundraising events throughout the year provide the financial resources needed to support the Youth Scholarship Fund and other worthwhile projects. For example, in 2011 the UMM completed a three-year pledge to the Camp Wesley Woods Capital Campaign. There are three fundraising events this year.

 

Spring Golf Tournament – Saturday, May 19, 2012 at Lambert Acres Golf Course

 

Fall Golf Tournament - Saturday, October 13, 2012 at Laurel Valley Golf Course

 

Pancake Breakfast – usually the first Saturday in December to coincide with the Maryville/Alcoa Christmas Parade. This festive event features all-you-can-eat regular or (our now famous) blueberry pancakes. Sausage and orange juice complete the menu. After breakfast, everyone heads outside to enjoy the parade.

 

United Methodist Men's Sunday - Usually held in late September, or mid October, The United Methodist Men conduct both worship services.

 

The Faithful Servant of Jesus Christ Award

A church cannot function with only a paid staff. Many volunteers are needed to keep the church alive and growing. Several of our members

 give freely of their time and talents serving others and living a life representative of a true Christian. Every year, the UMM sponsor an award to honor a member from our congregation who represents the true nature of a Christian servant, but who have not been recognized for their service to others. Each Fall the UMM solicit nominations from the congregation at large. The congregation then selects the recipient and the UMM present the award in January.

 

Annual Meeting  The UMM celebrate the past year in January with an Annual Dinner Meeting that concludes with the official installation of new officers.

A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION

OF THE UNITED METHODIST MEN IN ACTION

   
 

 222 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what

it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.

25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting

what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do. James 1:22-25
