SOUP MAKERS NEEDED! We’ll meet on Thursdays during Lent for soup and bread in the Asbury Room to enjoy a simple meal with one another.

The General Board of Church and Society's DVD series explores the United Methodist Social Principles and their use in the lives of United Methodists across the connection. After viewing some of the videos and having discussion, we’ll finish up at about 6:50 so that musicians can get to their rehearsals.
