Rediscovering Our UM Roots | Week 1 | Grace Upon Grace | Rev. Laurie Gates-Ward

Rediscovering Our United Methodist Roots

Series Overview:

Roots give us the stability and nourishment we need to grow and break new ground. As we seek to grow in our faith as individuals and as the church, looking back at the deep roots of the Methodist movement can help us look forward to our future. More than mere traditions rituals, our Methodist roots are evidence of God’s Spirit moving through our history, the same Spirit who is breathing life into us today.

Our JANUARY Special Second Offering is for "Mary Wattenford Scholarship"

The Mary Wattenford Scholarship established in 2003 is a service-based scholarship to award the youth of Good Shepherd for their acts of service to the church, community, and most of all to God.

The scholarship fund was named to honor Mary Wattenford, a dear member of Good Shepherd Church who passed away in July 2004.

Applicants are judged on their responses to questions, their letters of recommendation, and their interviews with the Scholarship Selection Committee.

The scholarship committee is looking for persons with sound Christian character who practice discipleship in daily life and are able to articulate their faith to others.
