Welcome
We are so glad you chose to worship with us today and we are excited about all the things God has been doing and will do in our congregation!
Lives are being changed by the power of God. There can be little doubt that we have very little power on our own for lasting change to happen in our lives, yet when we choose to allow the Lord to lead and guide us, amazing things can happen.

Christ the King Sunday celebrates the full authority of Christ as King and Lord of the universe. Officially called "The Feast of Our Lord Jesus Christ the King," it is cele-brated on the final Sunday of Ordinary Time, the Sunday before Advent. In 2017, the feast falls on November 26th.
Ephesians 1:15-23 (NIV)
15 For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 17 I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious in-heritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 20 he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, 21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22 And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church,23 which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.

Right now there are UMC young people who might not have had the resources to attend a school of their choice,
or, for some, any school at all, who have been sent by you into the world God loves because of your giving on United Methodist Student Day. When you give generously, you support these students as they prepare for a life that unites
faith with knowledge.
What no one person or congregation can do alone, we’re doing together.
