Neighborhood Groups 

The congregation at SPC is divided into sixteen groups based loosely on geographical location of residency. One deacon and one elder serve as liaisons between group members and the church. It is not always necessary to go through the liaison when there are needs or news of members to be relayed to church staff or appropriate committees, but it is a good way to coordinate efforts to minister or celebrate with our church family. Many neighborhood groups enjoy socializing together throughout the year. It’s a great way for newcomers to get to know other families.

​

Presbyterian Women

Every woman at SPC is automatically a member of Presbyterian Women. Presbyterian Women participate in WNC Presbytery activities and PC(USA) activities such as the Least Coin and Birthday Offerings. The women of SPC are strong supporters of our Home Work Club and the Rainbow Connection. The women lead worship on a Sunday in spring designated to honor women for their gifts to church and society. At SPC, there are three Circles from which a woman may choose to belong. Each Circle meets once a month, usually in a member’s home, between September and May, for the purposes of study and fellowship. Ladies are invited to visit and join as many Circles as they wish. The Circles are The Sarah Circle, The Mary Martha Circle, and The Deborah Circle. Circles meet September – May for study and fellowship.

 

Octets

Small groups, usually 7-9 people including singles and couples that meet monthly when possible to share fellowship and a meal together. This has been a wonderful way for members of the church to get to know each other better. For more information please contact the church office at info@shelbypres.org.

Committees – Much of the smooth running of SPC is dependent on the delegated responsibilities and work done by many committees. While most committees are chaired by a deacon, any church member is welcome to serve on a committee. Many committees are permanent and ongoing, while others are formed on an ad hoc basis.

• Christian Education

• Columbarium
