SUMMARY:April 19th Sunday Worship - Graduate Sunday!
DESCRIPTION:In May 2025\, the bishops of the United Methodist Church released a vision statement designed to help the church live into the mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. They built this statement around the themes of loving\, serving\, and leading. The invitation comes\, however\, not simply through the words\, but in the way they are described. We are not just called to love\, but to love boldly. We don’t just hear a call to serve\, but to serve joyfully. And we aren’t seeking those who will just lead\, but those who will lead courageously. The adverbs add a spark to the statement. We are invited by the Council of Bishops and the Connectional Table to celebrate this new vision statement in worship. Come\, let us love boldly\, serve joyfully\, and lead courageously. We will also be celebrating this year’s high school and college graduates in our congregation!
