While this is a multi-session experience\, you are not required to attend every session to participate. You are welcome to join whenever you are able. Each gathering is designed to stand on its own while contributing to a larger\, ongoing conversation. \nSupport for You and Your Family\nTo make participation easier\, childcare will be available during each session. Light refreshments and snacks will also be provided so you can come\, settle in\, and focus on the conversation without added stress.\n\nRegistration \nWhile attendance is flexible\, we kindly ask that you register to help us plan for childcare and create the best experience possible for everyone. \nRegister here >\nEvent Details\n\nAudience: Parents and caretakers of children ages 0–12\nLed by: Pastor Daniel\nChildcare: Available at each session\nRegistration: Requested (no RSVP required\, but appreciated for planning)\nAttendance: Come to one or all sessions\nFood: Refreshments and snacks provided\n\nJoin Us\nWhether you’re looking for guidance\, community\, or simply a space to be heard\, this gathering is for you.

SUMMARY:Spiritual Recovery Community
DESCRIPTION:Spiritual Recovery Community: Finding Healing After Church Hurt\nHave you walked away from a faith community or wrestled with the pain of high-control or fear-based religion? You are not alone—and your story matters. Many people carry wounds from spiritual environments that were meant to offer hope but instead left scars of judgment\, fear\, or exclusion. This event is designed with you in mind: a safe\, welcoming space to explore healthier ways of engaging with faith. \nOur time together will focus on topics specific to church-hurt\, spiritual trauma\, and the challenges of deconstructing harmful religious experiences. You’ll have the opportunity to share your frustrations\, ask questions\, and connect with others who understand what you’ve been through. Whether you’re still processing\, searching for new meaning\, or simply longing to be heard\, this is a place where your journey is honored without pressure or judgment. \nWe’ll strive for balance: combining thoughtful\, intellectual conversation about faith and spirituality with opportunities for personal and communal healing. This isn’t about quick fixes or forcing belief—it’s about holding space for honesty\, curiosity\, and growth. Together\, we’ll create a community where listening\, respect\, and compassion guide our conversations. \nIf you’ve ever felt silenced\, dismissed\, or misunderstood in your faith journey\, this gathering offers a chance to breathe\, reflect\, and rediscover hope in a healthier\, more life-giving form of spirituality. \nCome as you are. Bring your questions\, your doubts\, and your story.\n \nYou don’t have to navigate this alone—join us and find support among people who get it. \n\nWhen: 2nd & 4th Wednesdays\, September – June\nTime: 6:00 – 7:15 p.m.\nNot Meeting: November 26\, 2025 & December 24\, 2025\n\nRegister Now >

Together\, we’ll create a community where listening\, respect\, and compassion guide our conversations. \nIf you’ve ever felt silenced\, dismissed\, or misunderstood in your faith journey\, this gathering offers a chance to breathe\, reflect\, and rediscover hope in a healthier\, more life-giving form of spirituality. \nCome as you are.

SUMMARY:Western North Carolina Mission Trip
DESCRIPTION:Western North Carolina Mission Trip \nFor over two decades\, Floris United Methodist Church has been answering the call to serve communities impacted by natural disasters. From hurricanes and flooding to tornadoes\, our mission teams have brought hope and help to areas across the country. Now\, we invite you to be part of our next journey—our Western North Carolina Mission Trip. \nFloris UMC has sent more than 60 teams to disaster-stricken areas in states like Mississippi\, Florida\, South Carolina\, North Carolina\, Kentucky\, New Jersey\, and New York. Over 600 volunteers have rolled up their sleeves\, built homes\, cleared debris\, and most importantly\, offered compassion to those in need. This work continues as long as there are communities in need of recovery. \nOur next UMVIM Team to Western North Carolina is May 31– June 5. Would you be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ for the thousands of folks displaced by the remnants of Hurricane Helene? Whether you are skilled in construction or have little or no experience\, your willingness to help will make a great difference. \nAll missioners must be 18+ or 16–18 if accompanied by a parent or designated chaperone\, and there’s no upper age limit—just bring your heart and hands ready to serve!

SUMMARY:Conversations on Christian Parenting
DESCRIPTION:Parenting in Today’s World: A Faith-Centered Conversation\nEvent Overview\nRaising children today can feel both deeply meaningful and incredibly complex. We are inviting parents and caretakers of children ages 0–12 to join us for a welcoming space to share wisdom\, encouragement\, and real-life experiences in parenting. This gathering is designed to support those who are seeking to raise their children in a Christ-like and Christ-following way while navigating a world that looks very different from the one we grew up in. \nA Space for Honest Conversation\nParenting doesn’t come with a simple roadmap; especially when balancing faith\, values\, and the realities of today’s culture. This event creates an environment where you can wrestle with those questions alongside others who understand the journey. Together\, we will explore what it means to model Christ in our homes\, have meaningful conversations with our children\, and approach parenting with both grace and intentionality. \nLed by Pastor Daniel\nEach session will be guided by Pastor Daniel\, offering thoughtful insight\, practical perspective\, and space for open discussion. Whether you’re navigating early childhood or the transitions that come with growing kids\, this is an opportunity to learn\, reflect\, and grow alongside a supportive community. \nFlexible and Welcoming\nWe understand that life is busy. While this is a multi-session experience\, you are not required to attend every session to participate. You are welcome to join whenever you are able. Each gathering is designed to stand on its own while contributing to a larger\, ongoing conversation. \nSupport for You and Your Family\nTo make participation easier\, childcare will be available during each session. Light refreshments and snacks will also be provided so you can come\, settle in\, and focus on the conversation without added stress.\n\nRegistration \nWhile attendance is flexible\, we kindly ask that you register to help us plan for childcare and create the best experience possible for everyone. \nRegister here >\nEvent Details\n\nAudience: Parents and caretakers of children ages 0–12\nLed by: Pastor Daniel\nChildcare: Available at each session\nRegistration: Requested (no RSVP required\, but appreciated for planning)\nAttendance: Come to one or all sessions\nFood: Refreshments and snacks provided\n\nJoin Us\nWhether you’re looking for guidance\, community\, or simply a space to be heard\, this gathering is for you. We invite you to come as you are\, connect with others\, and take part in meaningful conversations that support you in raising your children with faith\, intention\, and love.

SUMMARY:Holy Mystery Class
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Holy Communion for Children\nWe are excited to offer an Introduction to Holy Communion class designed for children.

Please sign up in advance to help us prepare materials and create the best possible experience for each child. \nREGISTER HERE > \nWhy It Matters\nThis class is designed to help children grow in their faith\, ask questions in a safe space\, and build a strong foundation of understanding around Holy Communion.
