Around the Fire Pit
It was a great joy to celebrate God outdoors last Sunday during the 9am service. Gathering around the outdoor fire pits offered a unique worship opportunity for members of the community. We will continue to host outdoor worship opportunities in the new year with the next one taking place in February.

"The reverend John W. Townsend was named as pastor at the 1926 Conference. At a membership meeting held on February 23, 1927 a committee was appointed to prepare plans for a parsonage. A lot adjoining the church property was purchased and on November 15, 1927, the new house completely furnished was occupied for the first time by the parsonage family. The cost was $6,000." (If only this was still the cost of the area :D) from History of Calvary United Methodist Church put together by Don Henretty -Evan
