How are new beginnings made possible through your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service, and your witness. While today marks the end of the generosity emphasis for October, it is only the beginning of what God is going to do with our prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. Today, you are invited to consider the question, “How are "New Beginnings" made possible through your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service, and your witness?” Prayer response cards can be found in the envelope holders on the back of your pew at the ends of the pew. Complete your prayer card and place it on the communion rail at the end of the service or the interactive prayer station in the Chestnut Lobby. Also, don’t forget to return your 2024 estimate of giving card inthe offering plate, to the church office, or by mail. This estimate helps us better prepare for 2024 and marks your commitment to the church for the coming year, both financially and spiritually. Please return your commitment card by the end of this month. As the prophet proclaimed of the Lord, “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?” God is doing a new thing at First United Methodist Church, and you are invited to be a part of it.
