Pints with a Pastor
Check the calendar for upcoming dates

This group meets at a local restaurant, winery, or pub. The establishments we choose are usually friendly to all age groups, so college and high school students are invited to join us as well.  In a nutshell, Pints with a Pastor (PwaP) is a group sitting around a table talking about current issues of faith, philosophy, ethics, and ideas over a beverage. It is a safe space, where people can be honest and open about topics of faith, ask any questions, and at the end of the night, know that it’s perfectly fine if we disagree with each other…

Book Club
Check calendar for upcoming events

This is a casual group of people who love to discuss the books they are reading.  If you like to read and explore new books and meet new people, this may be the group for you!

Hearts and Crafts

If you are an experienced crafter or a beginner, you are welcome! Bring your crafting supplies and your curiosity.

We hope to meet monthly. We will have a small make-and-take project and then time to work on our own crafts. (The meeting may alternate between Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning at 1:30 PM in the Fellowship Hall.)

Men's Breakfast Group
1st Saturday of the month, 8:30 am
Literato

Many years ago, a younger group of OSLC men started to meet for breakfast once a month and had a topic for discussion or a book review. Everything changed so that now we are much older, and we have no topic or book review. We just enjoy whatever comes up. We welcome newcomers and guests. There is plenty of space. Each orders their own food and drink and heads for our table.

 

Dinner Group
Check calendar for upcoming events

This is a casual group of folks who love to eat and enjoy each other’s company.  It is usually held at one person’s home who provides the main dish, and the guest brings everything else.

Our intention is to build community and friendship knowing God is present in all of it.

 

Working Mom's Group

You are invited to join us for OSLC’s Working Mom’s Group on the first Saturday of the month from 9:30 -11:00. We currently meet at Starbucks located at 160 S Creasy Ln., Lafayette, IN 47905.

This casual group meets to support one another as moms and women
working outside the home. If you have any questions, please get in touch with
Erin Thompson at erin@osluth.org or 765-743-2931.
