Dear Friends,

Pastor Mark and Chris are enjoying time with family.  Let us hold them in our thoughts and prayers for safe travels.  It has been wonderful to see small groups coming back together in person for fellowship and worship.  I have been enjoying meeting more of you in person who I have only had the opportunity to talk to on the phone.  WELCOME BACK TO CHURCH!

With the uptick in attendance and as we welcome more first time visitors we are calling for worship hosts to help on a rotational basis. I recall my new membership vows to support the life of the church through prayer, presence, gifts, service and through my witness. If you feel this may be a way you would like to be on mission and service, please contact me in the office or via the connection card on Sunday.  

I am also excited to share with you a new way to follow the order of worship through the Bible App.  At your finger tips you can search and study the bible, have access to hundreds of devotionals and even be in devotion with friends and loved ones.  Another feature is EVENTS.  Each week we are listing our order of worship in events. This feature allows you to follow the order of worship and even take notes in the app.  I invite you to check it out. HERE is a short video which gives an overview on some of the features of the app.  Once you download it, please “friend” WUMC by searching our email church@wentzville-umc.net or by searching our user name which is Church846. 

This week I am honored to be your guest speaker. Our scripture comes from Philippians 4:4-9,21-23.  I invite you to join me as we look at the Life Lessons of a Summer Road Trip.  I look forward to seeing you in person or on Facebook as we buckle our seatbelts and take to the open road!   I promise to have you home in time for lunch.  

See you on Sunday, Judy
