SUMMER WEEKEND WORSHIP...JULY 17TH & 18TH

SUMMER WEEKEND WORSHIP......JULY 17TH 7 18TH



"Standing On the Promises: Or Sitting on the Premises"

The Promise of Peace!!!!!!!!!!!!



This weekend we will continue to think about the great promises that we can stand upon in our faith in Jesus Christ...this weekend we will think about the great promise of Peace..



God give us a promise of peace within our hearts and our lives as we live each day as disciples of Jesus Christ.



Peace is not that everything around us is fine..

Peace is that inner strength to make it through difficult situations and know that God is standing with you.



Summer worship is a great time to come and receive the inner peace of God through worship.



Hope to see you this weekend



Stay Faithful & Finish Well,

Your Pastor & Friend

SUMMER WEEKEND WORSHIP...JULY 10TH & 11TH

SUMMER WEEKEND WORSHIP....JULY 10TH & 11TH..





Summer is an exciting time of sharing in summer weekend worship at CUMC. This summer I am sharing in a series: "Standing on the Promises or Sitting On the Premises: The Promise of A Rock Solid Foundation"



So many people are building their foundations on the quick sand....quick sand being short cuts that end up being a sand that sifts away and let the house of our lives fall in.

Jesus talked about building foundation on the rock....

He gives us the promise of a rock solid foundation. If we decide to build upon that....our lives, our jobs, our kids, our faith will not fall in...



We invite you to come and stand on some promises not sit on the premises like so many do..



This weekend our special music :

Saturday Nite Lite 5:30pm Sandy Sprankle on the piano

Crossroads 6:14 Saturday night Crossroads band

Sunday morning 8:30am & 11am Who's The Gospel Four

Sunday mornign 9;45am AM Joy Acts Worship band



We invite you to come and share in some dynamic summer weekend worship.



Stay Faithful & Finish Well,

Your Pastor & Friend

We are blessed to have a special weekend that will include special music and one of our own special young adults who will be leading worship.

Infinitely Forgiven will be offering special music. Do you know how great it is to have this worship band that is made up of youth from our church. That are awesome. They lead worship at Dream Corner on a weekly basis and in AM Joy our Sunday Morning contemporary service every month. They are a committed group and we need to support them.

We are blessed to have Troy Milelr who is our Youth/Young Adult Ministries Assistant who also works with our contemporary worship bands. He is a senior at Geneva and his plans are to attend seminiary and go into the minsitry. He will be sharing in the leading of worshiop and the message for all 5 weekend services. What a commitment for him to be our worship leader and preacher for the weekend. There are not many full time ordained clergy who do that!!!!!!!!!!

We need to support him.
