We will gather after worship to enjoy a variety of delicious salads, and offer our unwrapped gifts/gift cards for the newly remodeled kitchen. Stay tuned for more information on how you can participate!

Leadership Training Event

After worship on Sunday, August 6, we will be offering a Leadership Development training session for all of those who are currently in leadership positions in our church, and for anyone interested in personal and/or professional growth in the area of leadership. We will be discussing the difference between management and leadership, the different ways we take in and process information, the importance of healthy boundaries, and the vision for the Body of Christ that Jesus set for us. Lunch will be provided. We hope you will join us.

Vacation Bible School 2021

VBS 2021

We will be having VBS this year on Saturday, August 7, 9:00 am to 2:30 pm, for kids in kindergarten through 6th grade.

This year’s theme is “Miracles Begin with Me.”  We will be singing, acting, crafting, praying, and learning all about how we can make a positive different in our lives and in the world.  Our primary Bible story will be when the little boy gave all he had to help Jesus feed the multitudes.

We will be outside or in the large, open spaces for the day. Children are encouraged to wear masks, but not required.

Sign up HERE, by July 31st

We’re  also looking for adult and youth volunteers to make this happen!

We will need class leaders/assistants, activity leaders/assistants, registration workers, lunchtime helpers, etc.  Some of the activities include outdoor games, craft projects, theatre skits, prayer time, and singing.

WEATHER DELAY FOR SUNDAY, MAY 2

WORSHIP DELAY DUE TO WEATHER!

Due to expected wet weather early tomorrow morning, our outdoor worship service time will be delayed by two hours and will be held at 11:00.  This delay will allow us to set up our stage and seating area after the rain has passed.

We hope you will join us at 11:00 tomorrow morning for this special worship service!

STORM CANCELLATION ANNOUNCEMENT

The in-person communion service planned for Sunday morning has been cancelled due to the frigid temperatures and heavy precipitation expected to move into the area tonight.

Please do your best to stay safe and warm.  Get your shopping and errands done early today, cover your faucets, be prepared for power outages, check on your neighbors, and stay off the roads if possible.

We hope you will join us online for worship.

SUPPORT UM ARMY

Family and Friends,

Please consider participating in our middle and high school mission camp fundraiser.  If this summer’s camps are also impacted like 2020’s, fundraising is the only way we will keep our 41 year old organization alive. Typically we fundraise to keep our costs low for our students. However, your support is desperately needed as our reserves are depleted.

U.M. ARMY invites you and your family and friends to support U.M. ARMY missions and register for the U.M. ARMY Virtual Valentines 5K. 

Register and participate to run a virtual 5K or one mile family fun walk the week of February 13-19th. Run from home, track your progress with your favorite app, and submit a screenshot of your time. Participants and sponsors will be invited to celebrate together at the closing ceremony on Zoom Saturday, February 20th at 6:00pm CST. 

 

Participants will receive a package of U.M. ARMY swag, including a participation medal. 

We will award prizes for winners of the following age brackets, for both male and female 5K participants: under 18, 19-35, 36-50, 51-65, and 65+

 

The cost is $50/participant or $100 per family. Sponsorships are available for $100 to be listed on the event webpage and recognized during the closing ceremony. After you register, you will receive an email from PayPal to complete your registration with a payment. You may also mail a check to U.M. ARMY, P.O. Box 12170, College Station, TX 77842. Please note that the registration system will not include the family discount, but your invoice will indicate the correct $100/family rate.

You may register or sponsor the event here. Please check the box for NXNW Texas, as this is our local U.M. ARMY region. 

Note, if you are competing in the 5K, you will need to send a screenshot of your run time to scottatnip@umarmy.org by the end of the day on Feb 19, 2021.  If you don’t have an app to track your time, please communicate with Scott.

We hope you will share this event with your friends, family and Church. We have a Facebook Event to help you spread the word.

 

Thank you!

In His service,
Mark

Journey to the Manger

We invite you, if you have time, to make a Christmas Eve or Christmas Day pilgrimage journey to the manger we have set up in front of the church.

Beginning at noon on Christmas Eve, we will have candles set out next to the manger for you to use at home as you join us for our Christmas Eve service.  There will also be some clear ornaments and markers available so you can write your family name on an ornament and place it on the Christmas tree that is next to the manger.  In this way you can mark the completion of your pilgrimage journey in a visible way.

The Pumpkins Are Here!

 

The first batch of pumpkins for this year’s Patch arrived today! Check out the new Photo Galleries on Facebook to watch the Patch fill up!

There are still shifts available for working in this year’s Patch. To sign up, use this link, or call the church office.

Hope to see you Sunday Morning at 10 am, for Outdoor Worship!
