Fellowship Groups

Small groups at Mayflower provide an important opportunity to make lasting friendships, to share the joys and challenges of different stages of life, and to develop a community of support. Fellowship groups continually evolve based on the needs and interest of members. Any Mayflower member is welcome to organize a new fellowship group.

Women’s Fellowship
This informal group of senior women meets the fourth Wednesday of each month from noon to 1:30 p.m. in the Fireside Room. Meetings include conversation with a Mayflower minister, occasional presentations on topics of interest, performances by children—and dessert! All senior women are welcome. For more information, contact Margie Drake at (612) 729-4958.

Retired Men’s Breakfast
Mostly retired, but definitely not tired, this group meets the first Tuesday of each month from 8–9 a.m. at Curran's Restaurant at 42nd & Nicollet Avenue South. The only requirement for attending is to have some association with Mayflower Church, either past or present. And it helps to have strong opinions about a broad range of subjects, able to be freely expressed. Laughs and conversation are the hallmarks of this group.

N2O’s (Not Too Old)
This “young at heart” group of couples and singles are ages 50+ who enjoy socializing together a few times each year. Activities include attending concerts and theater, dining out, and an annual “Stone Soup” event. For more information, contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Women of a Certain Age
This group first convened in 1999 to explore how members might want to reinvent themselves after finishing years of working either outside or in the home. The group meets the third Wednesday of the month (September–May) at 9:30 a.m. in the Fireside Room, enjoying devotions, a stimulating program, discussion, fellowship, coffee and treats.

F.A.M.I.L.I.E.S.
This group offers a community for parents and children of all ages (birth – 18ish) to share all that is families with kids.  The group seeks to empower and support parents and children through community and caring. Gatherings are planned throughout the year for education, discussion, socializing and support.
