"But those who hope in the Lord will  renew  their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. " (Isaiah 40:31)
Note from Pastor Glenna:
Many thanks for the various ways you are continuing your discipleship journey through participation in study, reading the devotionals, small groups, and online classes. As we cautiously take next steps back to gathering together, below are some suggestions and ideas on how to stay engaged in study and service in the coming weeks.

As always let me know of questions, concerns, or ideas you may have as we move forward. ( [email protected])
Daily Offerings
Daily Devotions
Daily devotions arrive in your e-mail inbox every morning at 6 am. These devotions are written by pastors, staff and members and friends of Concord UMC. Each contains a Scripture, short devotion and prayer.

To sign-up send an e-mail to gmanning@concordumc.

To be a contributor : If you would like to be a contributor for the daily devotions, we would love to have you participate! Currently Glenna is asking for volunteers to write devotions for the months of July and August . To contribute is simple:

  • Let Glenna know the date you would like to participate (or she can assign you one)
  • Choose a favorite Scripture
  • Write a short devotion
  • Add a short prayer
  • Send to Glenna

Please know that you will be a blessing to those who read your devotion.
