Happy (almost) Spring!

Birds are beginning to return from their winter migration south, flowers and trees are getting ready to bud and blossom, patches of grass can be found that have new green growth, that fresh new smell that can be enjoyed every Spring is noticeable if you go outdoors at the right time, and best of all- Easter is just a month away!

I am so glad to say that Spring is right around the corner, aren't you?
Along with each Spring season, GBUMC holds our special Holy Week & festivities to celebrate Jesus together. Take a moment to read our March newsletter and see what is going on this month!

We are so excited to experience this Spring & Easter season together with you!

In Christ,

Jenn Navolis
Director of Communications

What do I love about teaching Sunday School ....

I love being with the children; they are exuberant and earnest in everything they do. You can see them growing before your very eyes - certainly in stature,  but even more so in their ability to think and to reason.

 I love the activities - painting,  the cooking projects, science experiments, mission projects, and  yes, the glitter and glue.  I love it all!
I love working with the other teachers to plan all these wonderful activities, and figuring out how we can best help OUR children.  
Most of all, I love the very great privilege of being present when a child suddenly grasps a profound Biblical truth; or when a child, during prayer time, tells God about a  concern that is on her heart. These are the times when you say, "Wow, I've just seen God".   These are the best times - definitely!

There is great joy in serving the Lord. Worship is how we give back.
"Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship." - Romans 12.1 (NIV)
