Worship on Sunday, June 4 at 9:30 a.m.
In-Person or Online
This coming Sunday, it happens again. The "wrong" kind of people gather around Jesus and share a meal with him. And, again, there are those who don't like it. There are proper ways of doing things, and Jesus doesn't pay attention to them. What about you? Are you a rule follower? What do you do when a person or people challenge "the way things are done"? What is a faithful response to these challenges and people? Pastor Jeremy's message is called "Mercy, Not Sacrifice."
The Wesley Ringers Bell Choir will participate in worship, we will show our appreciation for our church staff, Sharon Rollins will read scripture, and Gregor Ralston will be at the piano. We hope you can join us -- in person or online -- for a wonderful experience of worship! Download the Sunday, June 4, 2023 worship bulletin here.

We will celebrate the sacrament of Communion this Sunday. For those who wish to celebrate with us from home, you'll need to have bread or crackers on hand, plus juice or wine -- enough for each person participating. |

Tigard UMC Staff Appreciation
On Sunday, June 4 we will recognize and thank the TUMC staff for their work on behalf of our church and its ministry. In the church lobby there are bags with staff member names, note paper, and pens on a table. Take a few minutes to write a note to TUMC staff members expressing your gratitude for and affirmation of them. If you cannot come to the church to write notes of affirmation, you can submit them electronically through this online form. Just a few kind and thoughtful words will go a long way to encourage and bless our wonderful staff! |

Bethlehem House of Bread (BHOB) is celebrating 10 years helping our neighbors in need access nutritious food. We couldn’t have reached this milestone without incredible volunteers. To commemorate this special occasion, BHOB is throwing a party on July 8. If you’ve volunteered at the pantry once, twice, or are a BHOB regular, you’re invited (and so is your family).
Party highlights include live music, BHOB Bingo, fun activities for kids and adults, hearty snacks, and of course birthday cake!
