Happy Friday, Church Family! 

On Sunday morning we will celebrate Pentecost Sunday! This is the day that the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the disciples and they began their new mission as apostles (messengers) of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Pentecost Sunday is the birthday of the church, and we will take time to celebrate the reality that through the gift of the Holy Spirit, we have been given the opportunity to be ambassadors of Christ in the world. We will read from Acts 2, and look at ways the Spirit still moves in and through the church today. 

Additionally, we will celebrate a special young man on Sunday who is getting ready to graduate from high school and begin his journey in college! Samuel Crowder will be recognized by our church as a graduating senior this Sunday and we would like to invite you to join us in celebrating him and this accomplishment. We will pray for Samuel, present him with a gift, our United Methodist Men will also make a special presentation to him, and we will have a chance to hear from Samuel about what growing up in this congregation has meant to him and his faith. 

It will be a full and joyful celebration on Sunday and I hope to see many of you there! If you want to get fully into the pentecost spirit, consider wearing some red to church! Many people wear red to symbolize the fire of the Holy Spirit poured out upon the church. 

We will be live in-person and online at 10 AM! 

Grace and Peace, 

Pastor Angelo
