Uncharted Bible Reading Plan starts January 10

With a new year comes new hopes, dreams, and plans. Some may be realized, others may not. But as we’ll discover while reading the Book of Esther, “The future you hoped for is not the only future with hope.” Want to make the most of your reading?

Costa Rica

Costa Rica Mission Trip

March 26–April 1, 2022

For the first time since 2019, we’re going back to Costa Rica! The Methodist Children’s Home of Costa Rica currently provides a loving home for 23 previously homeless children. You can help build more houses and facilities that will provide space for even more children in need.

Sunday Morning Class

New Small Groups and Sunday Morning Classes

Start your year with weekly fellowship and spiritual growth by joining a new Small Group (launching February 6) or Sunday Morning Class. Community and connection are essential to your faith journey! These opportunities allow us to experience the purpose and power of Christ in our lives, dig deeper in our faith, and grow closer to God and others.

Belong Doc

The Spotlight Musical Theater documentary

We're so excited that a documentary crew is filming participants' stories, rehearsals, and the performances to show the world Spotlight's one-of-a-kind program and talent. This is an incredible opportunity to share a behind-the-scenes look at the hard work and dedication of some of our amazing Belong Disability Ministry participants. Mark your calendars to see one (or all) of the performances in February!
