The purpose of the United Methodist Men is to engage in a variety of Christ-centered activities for the benefit of the ministries, programs and activities of the church and its’ members.
Since its formation in 1948, our men's organization strives to create opportunities for men of the church to be in service to Christ and to the community. United Methodist Men, through the giving of their gifts and services, enjoy fellowship, companionship, and the love that comes from being in service to the Lord.
We count all male members and friends of the church among the UMM, so come and be with us! There are no dues or fees to join.
We currently have a ROMEOs (Retired Old Men Eating Out) outing about once a month. Covid-19 created a significant disruption in our fellowship and service activities. In the past, we enjoyed cookouts and potlucks, with informational and interesting programs shared by our members touching on everything from Scottish Highland Bagpipes to Dogsledding in Alaska. Past UMM outings have included trips to play mini-golf and to watch Washington Nationals baseball games.
St. Paul's UMM also has a tradition of donating financial support and time to many groups and projects including:
Boy Scout Troop #439, Venture Crew, and Cub Scout Pack #478
