A Great Day in the Kingdom
|
Last evening some of you may have experienced an odd email from me. As a point of prevention, I will never ask you for any personal financial aid. Also, aid for the staff or ministries will be channeled through the church and given specifically to the office. Anything else can be viewed as a scam.
Let us pray for those who persecute us that they may see the love of God through Jesus Christ. The fifth chapter of Matthew verse 44, "But I tell you, love your enemies and prayer for those who persecute you". I love this church and I love this staff so please remember I am preaching to myself as well. May the Lord bless and keep you.
Pastor Joel

Some of you may have received an email seemingly from Pastor Joel requesting gift cards or for you to discreetly contact him. Please note this email wasn't sent by Joel or anyone else connected to AUMC.
Pastor Joel will never reach out to you via email requesting any donations. Nor will he ever request you to do anything for him which does not abide by Safe Sanctuary/Ministry Safe protocols.
You may wish to block the email address from which this email was sent. It was not his personal email address so you won't miss out on any legitimate emails.
If ever in doubt, please call us directly, not through any link or emails we may appear to send you.

Bring Your Own Bible
Bring it with you, in paper form, phone or pad, and we will join together in fellowship, as we open it up and consume it. The contents may even lead us to feel like our heads are spinning. Need help choosing the right bible? Email us and we will help you find your perfect partner.

We offer two Children Church opportunities.
For those attending the in-person service - After the Children's Moment, the children will leave for a short service of three own in the Chapel. They will return to you in your pews before the end of the service. COVID 19 safety protocols will be observed. Online viewers - At 10:45am, a Children's Church service is streamed online on our facebook page. They can watch a short story, and join in with our worship songs. A craft activity is available to go along with the service. Email Teresa to get one delivered.

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.
