The Road Less Traveled
I was going to bed the other night when it hit. It started as a low rumble that was barely perceptible inside the house. Then the lighting started, lighting up the window shades.

A Message from Bishop Lowry
A Statement from Bishop Lowry on Returning to In-Person Worship
If you or anyone you know is in need of food Aledo UMC has Manna bags ready to go. Hours to pick up a bag of canned goods are Tuesdays and Thursdays, noon-3:00pm, in the Narthex. If you live in Parker County and are needing help on a utility bill, please email info@aledoumc.org or call 817-441-8329.
Aledo UMC has heeded the warnings from health officials and temporarily closed the church offices for the foreseeable future. We are still the church, sohere are several ways for our AUMC family to stay connected through the week:
Sunday
10 am - Adult Sunday school - Facebook Live (Aledo UMC Page)
As we move into virtual worship and other gatherings for the foreseeable future, now is a great time to connect with online giving to ensure that the ministries and outreach of the church are not interrupted.
There are two basic ways to give electronically, and both are quick and simple.
The best option is to give via a direct transfer from your checking account. This is fee-free for you and the church. Simply fill out the accompanying ACH form and send it in to the church office along with a voided check. You can mail it to Aledo UMC, PO Box 126, Aledo, TX 76008.
Or you can text "aledoumc" to 77977. This will connect you to a service called PushPay, which will allow you to give electronically to the church using either a credit card or debit card. You will receive a text back with instructions guiding you through setting up your gift. You can give either a one-time gift or set up weekly or monthly giving through PushPay.
