We are called to share and serve others.
At some point in our relationship with God we are quickly pointed outward to others. It is not just a relationship between an individual and God, we are pointed toward community, toward others and ever outward beyond our comfort zone. We are called to share and serve others. We are called to move from self-centered to God-centered which will in turn move us to be concerned with all of God’s people.
Getting involved changes lives…not only others but ourselves!


The depth of God’s love invites us to service.
Jesus modeled care and concern for those in physical and spiritual need. He also pointed out that the two most important things about God’s way to true life was by loving God with all that we are and loving others as ourselves. Jesus was constantly reaching out to those considered “the least, the last and the lost.” He reminded all of us who would follow after Him in doing God’s will that we would not treat others as outcasts but as fellow brothers and sisters.
The depth of His love invites us to service and making a loving visible presence even when people often turn against each other. We want to proclaim God’s “good news” and love to the world through making a difference in people’s lives. There are lots of ways to serve both ongoing and one time events. They can vary in distance from feeding the hungry both here and around the world, helping schools in need with school supplies, disaster aid, clothing drives, missionary support and helping to provide scholarships for students at United Methodist related Africa University.
Find the joy of serving others!

Music Ministry
Since March 2020, many musical groups suffered through the changes and adaptations brought on by the Covid-19 Virus. I am happy to say that in spite of the adaptations our church went through, we are back on track with most of our musical ensembles. We have made several adaptations, adjustments, and changes while trying to maintain music for praise during our services. God certainly had His hand in guiding us through the process of making music together, without actually “being together.” However, through this process, we discovered new ways of producing our music and we are ready to begin a new year of making music together again!Adult Choir rehearses: WEDNESDAYS AT 7:00 PM in the sanctuary.The Adult Handbells have been rehearsing and playing for services since March of 2021.
