Our Sunday in McCamey

 
We enjoyed the blessing of another Sunday worship this morning in McCamey and in the afternoon at the McCamey Convalescent Center.  The wonderful weather we are enjoying this weekend in west Texas was reflected on the faces of the faithful who gathered to worship our Awesome God!  This evening was the fourth installment of our Lenten study, "Christianity and World Religions."  We looked at Islam and had a great time of sharing and learning.

The setting sun that lit up the church and serves as a reminder that God is with us from our rising in the morning to the setting of the sun.  Praise be to God!

One Great Hour of Sharing

"And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."   Micah 6:8 (NIV)

Today’s special offering enables the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) to do business and to send 100% of all designated funds to the selected programs. Please do your part by giving generously to One Great Hour of Sharing. Now more than ever the world needs you. Be there with UMCOR.  Visit this link to learn more.

Fourth Sunday in Lent

(The Ford of the Patridge on the River Jordan)


Morning Prayer (UMC Hymnal #253):

Father in heaven, at the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan You proclaimed Him Your beloved Son and anointed Him with the Holy Spirit. Grant that all who are baptized in His name may keep the covenant they have made, and boldly confess Him as Lord and Savior, who with You and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, One God, in glory everlasting. Amen.
