This Spring we will be entering a time of learning about our neighbors. How to be a good neighbor, and how Christ calls us to this. We hope you will join us for this sermon series of walking with the disciples as they learn to neighbor and call people to be neighbors in return.
“Every human being has value. This is the basis of all healthy relationships. Through living each day as it is given to me, I’ve learned that. It cannot be “taught,” but it can be “caught” from those who live their lives right along with us. What a privilege to be able to look for the good in our neighbor!”- Fred Rogers

Sheds are for storage. This may be true, but our shed is being built for more. It will also store United Methodist Committee On Relief kits that are used to support disaster relief worldwide. Thanks to our trustees for working on this project. To date over $3,000 has come from outside our church to support this project. If you want to learn more about how to support this work talk to one of our Trustees: Ed Heidrich, Buddy Kastrop, Kent Thompsons, Chris Munson, or Toby Stapleton. To date we have the foundation poured and the walls will start going up soon.
Special thanks to the concrete team led by Mark Sullivan.
