Good day to all visitors! Today is November 4, 2025. Hopefully it will be a bit warmer again today. I am ready for snow, but not gloomy and dark days. Ever since I've had cancer, my body is cold all the time, so winter may be a struggle. But I am up for it with the Lord's help.!
A few of the ladies of the church and myself, Pastor Teri, are making tie blankets out of fleece for Head Start. They are very easy to make as all you need to do is cut the fabric, straighten it out on occasion, and tie the two pieces of fabric together where you cut. It can be very soothing and a calming activity to do while watching tv, listening to music, or just working and needing a break. Also, don't forget to cut 5 inch squares around each corner before you begin cutting strips and tying them. And, be sure to get anti-pill fleece. We have been putting a solid on the back that matches a print. Non-denominational prints are good for Christmas too. Hope we get some of you to assist. We have 26 blankets so far as of today and need 106 in total. PLEASE HELP!

UMC Matters
As a United Methodist Church, we are connected to a larger network of churches and organizations. Here, we discuss UMC matters that affect our congregation and share insights into the broader mission and values of the United Methodist Church.
Pastor's Perspective
I believe in the triune God, God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I believe we are saved when we believe that Jesus Christ died, rose from the dead, and ascended into Heaven. I believe that God has a plan for each and every one of you, that he loves you no matter what you have done wrong in the past. Now is the present and it is time to turn to God. Turn your will and your life over to the care of God as you understand him! You will be better for it! Read the Bible as well. It is a book for guiding us to love one another, pray for our enemies, and turn the other cheek. It's easier said than done though, I know, I've been there. There is a life after death and that is due to the grace of God. Pray. Ask God to help you with your problems today and everyday. Pray for our world, the United States, Israel, Gaza, Unkraine! Pray constantly so that Christ will return to change our world upside down and for the better! Pray until you have no more energy to do so. (Pastor Teri 11-4-25
