Ever question if there’s more to life? Alpha is a series of group conversations that explore the basics of the Christian faith in a friendly environment. It’s a place to connect with people, where you can say anything you like or nothing at all. Everyone’s welcome. You’re invited, no matter your background or beliefs.
Each session includes a time to connect with others (often over a free meal), hear a short talk on an element of the Christian faith, and then a chance for each person to share their own questions with the group. We’d love to hear your perspective!
Join us for WOMEN IN THE KITCHEN (where we belong), a fundraiser benefiting Julie Valentine Center and WREN Group on Tuesday, April 18, from 7:30-9PM.

Join us for a fantastic evening of food and drink, donated by some of the best female chefs in Greenville.

Christina Barest of Naked Pasta

Katie Cheney of Hester General Store
Elizabeth McDaniel of Larue Fine Chocolate

Leslie Urbina of Camilla Kitchen
Over the course of the evening, after hours in the bookstore, we’ll have the chance to hear from members of the Julie Valentine Center and WREN about their mission and how we can help. Chefs are donating their time and product, and the proceeds from ticket sales will go equally to each organization. So join us at M. Judson, where everybody belongs.

This 6-week class will highlight ways to prioritize yourself in the caregiver role and offer tips and resources to navigate the challenges that come with caregiving. The class will also walk through the stages of grief and ways to cope with the difficulties of losing a loved one.
Registration is required.
Please select only one ticket option as this is a limited seating class and the instructor would like to ensure the class is tailored for each person. Classes will be held on the second floor at Gibbs Cancer Center- Pelham.

The first of its kind in the region, the RHVC will serve as a hub of resources for veterans, first responders, and their families. Through collaboration among public, private, and nonprofit partners, this one-stop shop will remove barriers and streamline service delivery for local warriors.
UWS is honored to have South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster, South Carolina Department of Veteran Affairs Secretary Todd McCaffrey, Greenville Mayor Knox White, and other state and community dignitaries show their support by attending this special event.
UWS holds the master lease for the 40,000 square foot center through which warriors will gain direct access to veteran-centric tenants and broader access to the organization’s network of community partners. The RHVC houses resources for workforce development, housing stability, physical and mental health, legal support, therapeutic art, and much more. This one-stop shop approach will enable veterans, first responders, and their families to easily connect with the services they need to thrive.
At Wednesday’s private ribbon cutting event, a brief program will take place, including a presentation of colors by the U.S. Marine Corps Color Guard, key remarks by Governor McMaster, Dorothy Dowe (Rupert Huse Charitable Fund Trustee), and UWS leadership, as well as an original poem by Glenis Redmond (Poet Laureate, City of Greenville). Following the program, the RHVC doors will be open for tours.
