NEW & IMPROVED GYM IS READY TO USE: If you haven’t seen the gym lately, take a look! We replaced the south wall, installed a Sport Court floor, added an air handling system, and repainted everything. Now it’s a real gym for everyone to enjoy, thanks to recent member bequests, memorials, and rental contracts. Check with the office about reserving it for an event, activity or just for fun.

BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO. The Global Methodist Church – a new, theologically conservative Protestant denomination based in the United States – separated from The United Methodist Church on May 1. The main issues for the split are the ordination and marriage of LGBTQ+ United Methodists, and the acceptance of homosexuality in the church. Click here to see what our interim Bishop David Bard says about the breakup.
