Kum Doubles

Welcome

The Kum Doubles class is a fellowship of couples and singles in their 50s and beyond who seek a closer relationship with God through biblically-centered lessons in a discussion setting. The class fellowship extends beyond the bounds of the church grounds. We have monthly activities and parties. We enjoy dining together at area restaurants, attending Southern Gospel musical events and meeting at members homes. We have a reputation for boisterous and hilarious parties especially at Christmas. Great food, great fellowship and good serious fun making joyful noise.

Classmates are friends of the closest sort - who can be counted on in times of need; when you're hurting, when a big job needs to be done and you can't get it done alone, at your hospital bed, beside you sharing your joys and your sorrows. Most of all, we, the members of the Kum Doubles class, desire to serve and please God in all we do, both at church and in our daily living. 

Our Archived Newsletter

The September Newsletter was the farewell edition of the Kum Doubles Newsletter written and published by the ever-faithful Jim Dayton. He has kept us informed, enlightened and entertained over the years with his quips, quotes and messages from his heart. We are going to miss you Jim. Thank you ever so much for what you have given to us, to the church, to God's people and to God himself. We have been blessed. Best wishes and God's grace always to you and Judy and all of your family as you make your new home in the Great White North of Michigan. Good Day, ay?

Our Cookbook

Taste of Heaven Cookbook - members of our class have pooled their secret and sacred family recipes handed down for generations and recorded them in the Kum Doubles "Taste of Heaven" cookbook. The cookbook is on sale and all proceeds go to support our church's missions. Copies will be on sale at the Lord's Acre festivities and in the church office. These are collector's items since the recipes are all one of a kind and only a few books are left.

Cost is $10.00. Get your copy while you still can!

The recipes are superb and the presentation is top notch. Thanks to Jim and Judy Dayton and Windell Bagett for their hard work and God-given talent in putting this masterpiece together for all to enjoy! Who knows, there may be a few copies left! Check in the church office or with a Kum Doubles class member for these collectors items.

Focus

Our weekly classes are biblically-centered lessons in a discussion setting. The class focuses on service projects throughout the year and missions support. We help support many of FUMC's missionaries and their families and other local service needs through monetary donations from our weekly giving, special collections and fund raising projects.
