Around 1921, the ladies of the congregation formed a group that is now known as the Afternoon Circle. It is primarily a social group of about 10 women who are members of the Medford United Methodist Church. They meet on the first Wednesday of each month at 1:30 PM in the Fellowship Hall. Each meeting starts with devotions followed by a business meeting and a time of fellowship. Throughout the year, activities are scheduled for fundraising t-o help with the needs of the local church, community and a few national or international missions. Women of all ages are welcome to attend.
For information on joining this group, call the church office at 715-748-2165
