May-June 2021 Newsletter
Amos (Sermon Series)
Starting Sunday, July 4, Pastor Andrew will begin a sermon series focused on the prophet Amos. When Pastor Andrew requested ideas for sermons last year, a person suggested sermons on the minor prophets. For the month of July, Pastor Andrew will focus on the prophet Amos and his call for justice and righteousness. Join us on Sundays at 10:15 AM in our sanctuary, or on the live section of our website, or at 2 PM on WMSS 91.1 FM.
Holy Communion-June 6, 2021
On June 6, 2021, at our 10:15 AM worship service, Evangelical UMC will celebrate Holy Communion. This will be the first time for in-person worship in over a year. We will have individually packaged communion elements. Worshippers will stay seated in their seats. Each person will receive a individually wrapped wafer (gluten free available) and sealed grape juice cup from Pastor Andrew , Deacon Megan, or an usher. After everyone receives the elements, Pastor Andrew will invite everyone to partake at once. All who seek to grow in their relationship with Jesus are welcome to participate.
