Join us Sundays at 10:30 AM for Worship,
either in-person or online on YouTube / Facebook Live.
This past Sunday began our Stewardship season. Our congregation will explore how God is enough in life as well as learn how to cultivate contentment and gratitude. This series is based on the popular book study by world-renowned UMC pastor, Adam Hamilton. You’ll also hear testimony from beloved church members throughout this series. At its close on October 31, you will be invited to pledge your financial and ministry commitments for the 2022 year.

Raise the Roof…nearly halfway there!

Thank you to all who helped make our roof fundraiser so deliciously successful! Because of their efforts and your attendance/generosity, we are now almost to the halfway point in our fundraising. We raised over $3000, praise God!!! (A special thanks too from Pastor Matt for making his birthday so special.)

As a reminder, you can make checks payable to the church with memo, “Roof replacement”’.
Recently, we received news that our congregation has been rewarded a $3,500 technology grant from Samford University’s Center for Congregational Resources.

We plan to use these technology resources to enhance our online presence for worship. The CCR has consulted us in significant ways we can improve and streamline our visual quality across social media platforms. We also plan to use these funds to improve the in-person Sunday morning experience for visitors and young families, allowing for visual communication and streaming throughout the building. These resources give us hope in reaching our increasingly younger and diverse community of Pleasant Grove for Jesus Christ.
Zoom Charge Conference, Nov 7 at 3 PM

This year, The Central District will have five virtual Charge Conferences this year.   Group 3, which you will be a part, will meet Sunday, November 7 at 3:00 p.m. via Zoom.
