Want to Get Involved a Little More?
Here are a couple of places in which we always need people’s help:
Usher – We haven’t had ushers since prior to the pandemic. We’d love to start this again! This would be easy for one or two people. Duties would include assisting those in need to find a seat; making sure everyone has a bulletin; if possible, putting our welcome signs outside, and then bring them in after the service ends; closing outside doors just prior to the service, and opening when the service ends (keeps out noise and heat/cold). (Jennifer Hampton would be happy to help get this started. Judy McConnell and Al Alcantar can also be a resource.)
Greeter(s) – We also haven’t done this since pre-pandemic. A greeter is one or two people who greet all guests as they enter the sanctuary. This could also be the usher. If you still have a nametag, wear it! If this works out, perhaps we can get new nametags.
Counters after church – Count the money from the morning offering. (Please see Steve Adams regarding this.)
Liturgist – Pastor’s assistant during service, read announcements, and such. (Please see Jennifer Hampton regarding this.)
Sign up to bring goodies for a Sunday morning. There’s a sign up sheet near the office door. (Please see Lupe Alcantar or Bobbie Lane regarding this.)
Looking Ahead:
The Season of Easter and Beyond
Heritage Sunday
May 19th
Our current sermon series is on what a Methodist is, which includes the history of Methodism and the Wesley brothers.
Peace with Justice
Sunday, May 26th
This Special Sunday is a denomination wide celebration intended to raise awareness that even in a world plagued by war and terror, violence and destruction, people of faith have a clear call to build peace with justice. As United Methodists, our yearning for peace must move us to act. The United Methodist Social Principles call us to love our enemies, seek justice, and serve as reconcilers of conflict. We insist that the first moral duty of all nations is to work together to resolve by peaceful means every dispute that arises between or among them. The United Methodist Church, with its historic commitment to peace and justice, can and should provide leadership to this social transformation. The General Board of Church and Society Church holds a non-governmental, consultative status with the United Nations. This status allows us to participate in UN meetings, consultations and conferences. We recognize and renew our call for social transformation, for the quest to open the doors of opportunity for all, to distribute resources more equitably, and to provide better care for persons in need. Churches are encouraged to donate through their local churches or give online.
