Community Outreach

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 His 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!

You know the old saying, “time flies when you’re having fun”. Well, I hope everyone feels as though they have had enough time to feel rested and renewed, and you had some fun “making memories” along the way. Here at Desert Skies, we have been planning for several new sermon series, with lots of new music, and a brand new Christmas Cantata called, “Christmas Dreams” by Joseph M. Martin.

The Praise Band has continued throughout the summer and has provided some wonderful worship music, and we even had a couple of guest musicians join us while others were on holidays. Our rehearsals are on Sundays at 1:00 pm. If you are interested in performing with the Praise Band, please contact “Doc” Shawn for more information. All instruments are welcome! (Saxophones, flutes, violins, trombones, etc.)

The Adult Choir and Adult Handbells will resume their rehearsals on August 22^nd . Ring and Sing will resume on October 8^th, the first Sunday in October; Youth Handbells are TBA.

If you would like further information on any of our musical groups, please contact me at the office or via email at: [email protected].
