Burke United Methodist Men

Open to all men of the church and community. Goals are to provide an active fellowship of men who seek to know Christ and to service supporting our missions and scholarships. Burke UM Men meet the third Saturday of each month at 7:45 am for breakfast, fellowship, devotional and a short program. They sponsor events such as a monthly pancake breakfast, annual chili cook-off, Christmas tree sales, and golf tournament.

BUMC Military Family Fellowship

Burke UMC sponsors a Military Family Fellowship to provide prayers, support, assistance, and fellowship to families with deployed Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Civilians. If you are such a family, or would like to be part of the support group, please sign up on designated sheet in the entryway. If you have questions, please contact Diane Formica at dh4mica@hotmail.com or Terrie McCue at tfmccue@cox.net.

Prayer Shawl

Burke UMC's Prayer Shawl ministry group for youth and adults knits and crochets shawls for individuals who need to be reminded that through it all, they are enfolded in God’s love. These individuals may be facing very difficult events, such as serious illness or family stress, or life changing events, such as moving away or giving birth. The shawls are made with prayer and blessed by the group before being presented to the recipients. Since 2003, our prayer shawl ministry has knitted and crocheted over 400 shawls for people in need of Christian caring. Meetings are Tuesday nights at 7:30 in room B-12, and anyone is welcome to drop in regardless of crafting experience. If you would like to learn more about participating in this caring ministry, or if you know someone who would be comforted by a tangible reminder of the love of God which always surrounds us, contact the church office or the prayer shawl coordinator, Sallie Tiso.

Sunday Fellowship Coffee

Join us for coffee, juice and cookies in the Fellowship Hall between the 9:30 and 11:00 worship services on Sunday mornings. This is a great time to get to know the people you see around you every Sunday! If you are interested in being a set-up/clean-up volunteer (which are always appreciated) please contact the church office.
