Our Worship Service
Our worship service is designed to offer blended worship. It is not a formal, traditional service. Neither is it a contemporary praise service. We also have an organist/pianist who leads us in hymns & modern songs. We try to have something that appeals everyone. Our preaching & teaching is centered on the Word of God, the Bible.
Fellowship Opportunities
We offer frequent opportunities for fellowship through coffee hour after worship service, brunch after the adult Sunday school & frequent church dinners. There is a Dinner & Movie night once a month.
Women may join the United Methodist Women (UMW)'s monthly gatherings OR men can join the Men's Group's monthly gatherings. Both are a great time for fellowship & learning.
Bible Study and Other Learning Opportunities
Children
Our Kingdom Kids group meets on Fridays at 2:30. (There is a fall session & a spring session) The children are escorted by adults from the elementary school across the street to our church. Here they have a snack, a time of music, a story, crafts, games, prayers and much, much more. Parents pick them up at 4:30. The Kingdom Kids have two hours every week to learn about God, to praise God and have great fun, food and fellowship together.
Sunday school for children is available on Sundays at 9:15am; shortly after the worship service begins. A Bible based lesson, craft/activity relating to the lesson and a snack.
Adults
We offer an Adult Sunday School class on Sundays who study topics using various media such as DVD lessons and discussions as well as printed material. . .and of course, the Bible. Short-term Bible Studies are offered at different times throughout the year as announced.
Please Come and Join Us!

MOTHER - DAUGHTER BANQUET
The Mother-Daughter Banquet is coming up on Thursday, May 10. It will begin at 6:00pm and will be a dish-to-pass. The men will provide meat and clean-up. Table service will be provided.
This year‘s theme will be all about babies with a mock baby shower. The last 3 years at one of our meetings, we have held a baby shower for the Newark Baby Closet. Everyone brings a baby gift and the ladies who work the baby closet open them. So, it was decided to invite everyone who’s coming to the banquet to participate in supporting the Baby Closet.
The items they can use include: new or gently used clothing - newborn to size 4, **Diapers/wipes, Crib bedding, Infant toiletries (baby shampoo, lotion, etc), **Formula (especially Enfamil with Iron) or anything for babies/toddlers is appreciated!! ** = big demand of these items!
RSVP to Carol Kenville (315-483-9990) or the church office (315-946-6035) by Sun, May 6

SPIRITUAL RETREAT
We the United Methodist Men (UMM) of the Upper NY (UNY) Conference are very excited to be part of a dynamic retreat which we are hosting on September 7 & 8, 2018 at Skylake Camp & Retreat Center in Windsor, NY.
We are having a dynamic guest speaker, Bishop Swanson of the Mississippi area as well as our own Bishop Webb will be there to facilitate the event.
This retreat is being done with the thought process of being more inclusive with not only the UMM of the UNY Conference in attendance, but also to their families & friends. We are also inviting people from other denominations & communities. The thought process is that churches of other denominations are also involved in UMC missions. An example would be Baptists churches being involved in Red Bird Mission.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you in advance for your support. We, the UMM are there to support your ministry in every way possible. Just reach out to us & we will be there to support your church in every way possible. God bless you as your continue to do the Lord’s ministry.
In Christ, Sanjay Solomon, UNY UMM Communications Manager, (937) 626-5247
