Nicaragua Mission Trip

Again this year, the team will be purchasing items to assemble health kits to give people who live at the city dump in Granada, Nicaragua. These people lack so many simple necessities to live a healthy life that we are so blessed to have immediately at our disposal.  Envelopes are on the palm tree in GMH for a monetary donation for supplies that will be purchased in Managua, Nicaragua.  Envelopes should be given to a team member.

Lenten Study Groups

24 Hours That Changed the World

Over the course of seven sessions, we will retrace the last 24 hours of Jesus’ life.  Beginning with the Last Supper, we will follow Jesus through the Garden of Gethsemane, to his arrest, trial, and crucifixion.  Based on the book written by United Methodist Pastor Adam Hamilton, this study will guide us  to view those events from the perspectives of the people who were there.  This study will be led by Pastor Mercer and will be held on Tuesdays in the FOCUS room.  Participants have a choice of attending either the morning or evening session.  Please RSVP to the church office via phone or email demercer@comcast.net

The dates of the sessions are:

February 21, 28, March 6, 13, 20, 27, and April 3

Morning session runs 10am til 11am

Evening session runs 7 pm til 8pm
