Weekend Worship....June 22nd & 23rd

SUMMER WEEKEND WORSHIP....JUNE 22ND & 23RD...

We continue to share in the message series; Ministry's Core. This weekend  the message will be centered around: Equipping: Building a Battle Ready Team. As we think about the church and the core of ministry, we need to  think about equipping others to share and do the ministry of the church. This is the time of the year when I lead the Lay Ministry team that nominates leaders and people to be on ministry teams to do the work of Christ in and through our church. As we think about the style  of Christ and his leadership we saw that he constantly equipped his disciples to do the work of God.We are blessed at CUMC to have many leaders who are stepping up and sharing int he awesome ministry of Jesus Christ. 

This weekend I will be leading the Sunday Morning services. I look forward to sharing with you who come at 8;30am 9;45am and 11am.  I hope that the Spirit of God leads us in this special time of worship...

Summer blessings
