Pray on the Way


The church will be open to members and the public for prayer, meditation and praise. Soft music and prayer suggestion sheets will be provided. No spoken message will be shared. Pray on the Way will occur the last Tuesday of each month from 5:30-6:30pm.


Come for five minutes or the whole hour. God will be listening.

Theatre for the World, a ministry of Waterville United Methodist Church, is on the stage again! They will be presenting a Lenten drama titled "Given For You" on March 27th and 28th. This will be a different perspective on the traditional story of the events of Maundy Thursday. You will get a peek at the women who prepared the meal and their thoughts about Jesus. Then, you will be taken to the Upper Room as depicted in The Last Supper painting by Leonardo da Vinci. Each of the disciples comes alive, giving an insight into their character and pondering which of them will be the one to betray Jesus.

 

The performances will start at 7:00 pm both nights and include the partaking of

communion. There is no charge for the production, but monetary donations will be

welcomed to benefit both the AW Food Pantry and the AW Community Food Ministry.

Missions Committee Focus for February:

Connecting Kids to Meals

Our March mission focus is Connecting Kids to Meals. This organization provides hot, nutritious meals to children in low income and underserved areas in Lucas and Wood counties. 


They serve about 750,000 meals a year and need to raise approximately $400,000 annually. Every single dollar helps get a healthy meal to a child who might otherwise go hungry during after school hours, weekends, and summer vacation.
