Church is open for worship

This morning will be the third week Faith UMC has been meeting since the pandemic began. We wear masks, but we now sing. The building is large, so social distancing is not a problem.

We are catching up on lost special days. Last week, we celebrated Mother's and Father's Day together, and next week is Easter!

He is risen!

Can Christmas Happen Today?

Advent continues with the candle of righteousness this week. Pastor Jack will read from Luke 2 and give a message called Can Christmas Happen Today? A coffee and fellowship time starts around 9 a.m., with Sunday school at 9:30. Worship begins at 10:30 a.m. in the sanctuary.

We'll be singing traditional Christmas carols: Angels from the Realms of Glory, Once in Royal David's City, Angels We Have Heard on High.

I Get It! Really!

Last week, weather kept Pastor Jack and Kathy in Britton, and Bob Seaton -- our go-to guy -- at home south of town. Cindy Schick stepped in and delivered a message on Psalm 23 and kept the service going. We had a time of hymns and prayer. THANK YOU, CINDY!

This week, Pastor Jack will speak on Luke 6 in a message called I Get It! Really!
