Heritage Sunday 2006

It is the tradition at First UMC to combine All Saints Sunday and a celebration of our church heritage. Yesterday, we not only honored the saints of the past, but looked to the future by having the children plant a new tree. We also enjoyed a picnic on the front lawn following worship as part of this day. What a glorious day! The weather was beautiful, the attendance was overflowing and the spirit was great.

Wish I could have been there to share the wonderful spirit that I know was evident. The previous week, we celebrated Homecoming at Poplar UMC, and the same spirit prevailed. I hold First UMC in my heart and my prayers always, and I pray for the Spirit to guide the church in ways that will enable the addition of new disciples and the maturation of many more.
