FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

November has come in with lovely sunsets and the fall colors are fading away, but we rejoice in knowing that our Heavenly Father’s love never fails!  Welcome to a season of renewal and growth at Fulton First UMC. A Spiritual Growth Library list of books can be downloaded here for your pleasure. Reach out to let me know of your questions and progress; I would love to walk this journey with you!

 

This month we will prepare our hearts to deepen in understanding of God’s love with the Discipleship Ministries Lectionary Series entitled Truth Telling. We will look at topics like “You Will See the Glory of God”, “Out of Their Abundance”, “Do Not Be Alarmed” and “To Testify to the Truth” to glance at scriptural references that will share images of the hope we can only find through Jesus Christ.

​

Ways you can collaborate in ministry at Fulton First include participating in our Seven Week Preaching Course is still in session! Those interested will gather at the Parsonage at 11:30 am to share a light meal and complete the lesson. Calendar of lesson dates and times will be provided at the Welcome Center. In addition, the Praise Band is getting back together! If you love to sing praises to the Lord, join us the SECOND AND FOURTH Tuesday of the month at 7 pm. We also plan to celebrate a Thankful for You, Lord! Talents Worship Sunday November 24th and invite you to sign up to share a poem, song, dance, or instrumental selection that will lift up a praise to our God! Lastly, Saturday, November 30th, will be the Hanging of the Greens Pizza Party. Join us to decorate our Sanctuary and church areas with the joy of 2024 Christmas theme “Angels Watching Over Me”.  

         

Let us stay in the Word and in prayer for one another and keep in mind the words of Paul the Apostle “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philip. 4)                Many blessings to you all!                                               Rev.
