*NEW SHORT TERM STUDY*

The Wesley Prayer Challenge


Dig deeper into the Wesley Covenant Prayer with Pastor Mychal! This three week challenge (four meeting times) invites us to pray the Covenant Prayer each day and to reflect on specific words and how they relate to the whole. We will meet Tuesdays, 6PM - 7PM, in the New Beginnings room downstairs starting NEXT TUESDAY, January 28.


Let's see how three weeks of daily prayer can shape our lives as committed followers of Jesus Christ!

SERVE

The little free pantry supply closet has recently been restocked,

so monetary donations

to help cover the costs

would be much appreciated!

We are also still in need of

Beanie Weenies! Other foods that go quickly and are always in need of replenishing are peanut butter, Spam (or Treet), canned soups,

and cereal.

Thank you for

your support of the feeding ministries of our church.

Serve with our Children & Youth!

In the UMC Baptismal Covenant, we are challenged to nurture our kids and students in the life of the Church and the Christian faith. Studies show it takes at least 5 adults beyond their parents to help nurture young people into a lasting relationship with Jesus Christ. Be a part of passing down faith to the next generation by serving with Children or Youth on Sundays and Wednesdays.

Sermon Series

Sundays at 11 am

Get ready to dive into the incredible story of Jonah—a runaway, a big fish, and a God whose grace never gives up! Over 4 weeks, we’ll explore this tale of a reluctant prophet, a compassionate God, and the power of second chances. Bring a friend and jump into the book of Jonah with us Sundays at 11AM!


The way to peace is to BE peace.


“There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.”

~~Martin Luther King, Jr.
