Pickleball Web Image.png

We're transitioning our pickleball scheduling from online sign-ups to open play! This allows you to drop in and play with others present at the time. Should there be more players than available courts, simply place your paddle on the table. After each game, the winning team remains but splits, and the next two players in line join in for the next game. We're removing the online sign-up feature, so feel free to come by on Wednesdays, anytime between 6 and 8PM to join in the fun.

Schism.png

Most of us have heard that some United Methodist congregations have voted to leave the UMC, but we may not know much more than just that. On Sunday, January 22, the Fellowship Class will host Pastor Tracey and Jay Brim to present information and answer our questions. We are fortunate to have access to such expertise – Tracey for our congregation’s perspective and Jay for the big church (UMC).

What is the issue? What is the plan? And what questions do you have? Everyone is invited. We will meet in the sanctuary to accommodate a larger gathering - starting promptly at 10:10 am. It will also be livestreamed here.

The Fellowship Class hopes that you will join us on the 22nd.
