St. Paul United Methodist Church Eighth Sunday after Kingdomtide (Green) July 30, 2017 8:30 and 11:00 am Rev. Geoff Grubbs, Senior Minister
Good morning folks, This week I am traveling to Brentwood First UMC in Nashville, TN. This is an opportunity to learn about ministries that we can use to further our work in the kingdom. Kingdom work is essential to the church. We can never be so small of vision that we think only of what St. Paul is doing. We must constantly learn from others and enlarge our ministry according to what we see might be working in other areas. I believe in research and learning from others. This is also the week that we bless the school supplies and an opportunity to pray for our students as they get ready to return to school. We never forget all the teachers and parents in our congregation. May we keep them all lifted up in prayer as the new year starts. Blessings, Geoff Sunday, July 30, 2017 8:30 am Morning Worship 9:30 am Morning Fellowship 10:00 am Sunday School 11:00 am Morning Worship 4:00 pm Children’s Movie (FH)
