Back to the Beginning

In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth, the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a

wind from God swept over the face of the waters. Genesis 1:1-2

For the coming weeks, we are going “back to the beginning” to

explore who God is and who we are meant to be as part of God’s creation. Ruach, in Hebrew, is God’s spirit or wind that hovered

over the waters and brought life. God’s word spoke light into darkness and order into chaos. As God’s children, created out of love and made in God’s image, we carry this loving creative spirit

into our world daily. May we carry God’s light and create beauty wherever we go by God’s spirit.

Peace,

Pastor Janet

Please be praying as a church that God would send

us just the right person to lead our young people.

We are looking for a new Youth Ministry Director who

is passionate about youth and will encourage them in

their walk with Christ. Previous ministry experience is

preferred, but more important is a teachable attitude,

authentic faith, and positive team spirit. The position

is part time, with flexible hours 12-20 hours per week.

Should you or someone you know be interested in this

position, a resume and cover letter may be submitted

to [email protected].

UMW NEWS

May 20th, 1:00 PM: Craft Circle. All

ladies are welcome. Please join us as

we work on mission projects together!

UMW Scholarship Opportunity: Attention graduates and continuing

education students! A UMW

scholarship is being offered to a

qualifying student. Please submit

your application, including proof of

graduating, college acceptance, transcripts, and a

brief description of credentials. Applications are

available in the church office.

Calling All Salty Servants

Thank you to those who turned in your salty

servant hours last week! These help our monthly

vital statistic counts with the UMC.

A Salty Servant ministers to someone outside their

church family for at least one hour per week. If you

have done that this week, please take a salty

servant card from the back of the pew and place it

in the offering plate, so we can include you in our

count.

Ideas for salty servants include visiting in nursing

homes or hospice, baking someone a cake, mowing

a neighbor’s lawn, sending out cards of

encouragement, helping a friend move, bringing

someone dinner, handing out a manna bag…

anything you do to love and serve others in the

name of Jesus!

Are you or someone you know struggling with

addiction for yourself or a

family member? Check out

this website for help:

Special Bishop’s Mission Offering

We will be collecting a special offering on May 26 and

June 2 for The Bishop’s Mission Offering for the

Annual Conference. It will be divided between a

restart of the FAMU Wesley Foundation in Tallahassee

and planting a new church in Lowell Women’s Prison

in Reddick. See your bulletin insert for more info! And

please plan to support this worthy cause.

Belong Small Groups

Our Belong groups are a blessing to so many!

There is always an open chair saved for you. Join

us any time. Hear what people are saying about

how being in a Belong Group is impacting their

life every week:

"Our Belong group quickly formed bonds of

friendship & trust. I love our group sessions as we

all share and learn something new each week which

is always sprinkled with a bit of laughter."

-Pat Schwartz

“Our Belong Group is a place we can come together

to share our faith, our personal stories, our concerns,

our sorrows and joys, our prayers and praises, our

sisterhood and the joys of hearing about the amazing

answers to our prayers. We all look forward to

coming together for our Tuesday Morning in the

Gathering Room. -The Church Ladies

“I so enjoy the fellowship that comes with attending

my Belong group. Each time I’m there, I gain new

knowledge and different perspectives from other

people. It’s been an awesome experience for me so

far!” -Sue Wakelin
