March 10 and 11
In much of the law, including the Biblical law, there are statutes that seek justice through repaying some form of evil and suffering for another. Theft is paid back with money or perhaps time in prison. Jesus suggests that instead of seeking repayment, we must turn the other cheek, and give the coats off our backs when someone demands our shirts. What would it look like to offer true forgiveness and reconciliation in the face of those who do us wrong?
Saturday:
5pm with Praise Band
Sunday:

In 2017, one of the strategic initiatives for Keller UMC was to upgrade our digital infrastructure. We have moved our email and shared files to the cloud and off our local server for better security and more reliable service. Our next step is to upgrade our church management system from Shelby v5 to ShelbyNext, a cloud-based product which offers much more functionality. You will hear more about this in the coming months as we test new features and make them available.
On
Friday, March 9, we will zip up our Shelby financial and membership files and send them to Shelby Systems, where they will be migrated to the new system. We have put plans into place to minimize the impact on the congregation, but you may see a delay of a few days for things like processing offering checks or cutting reimbursement checks for the next two weeks or so. Thank you in advance for your patience as we embrace this new technology!
