Upcoming Events

World Communion Sunday

Next Sunday, October 4th

What would it look like if the church today

imitated Jesus’ affirmation of the full

dignity and God-given potential of all

women and men—especially those who’ve

historically been assigned to the world’s

margins? On World Communion Sunday

your giving helps to provide scholarships

for national and international graduate

students whom God has gifted to learn and

to serve. Read more at

www.umcgiving.org.

Third Grade Bibles

We are excited to present our third grade

love to have your child participate in this

wonderful milestone! Children who are
