A Celebration for Pentecost
Sunday, May 11, 2008

This Sunday, May 11, we will celebrate Pentecost, also known as the "Birthday of the Church," at all worship services. Pentecost Sunday always falls 50 days after Easter, and the word "Pentecost" actually means "fiftieth day." We will remember the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the early followers of Christ, and celebrate God's gracious, enabling presence actively at work among his people today.

The 8:30 and 11:00 services (in the Sanctuary) will feature dramatic reenactments of the first Pentecost. We will also dedicate the new Sanctuary Steinway Concert Grand Model D piano at these two services.

The 8:45 New Horizon service will be held outdoors on the patio, and will include children's choirs, the praise team, and dancers. Bring your own chairs for this service!

Greetings from Christ UMC:

jan_small I am glad you found your way to our website. Some very talented and dedicated people are working hard to make this a valuable resource in your life. Like everything we do at Christ UMC, the purpose of this website is to Make Disciples for Jesus Christ. We attempt to achieve that goal by being a place where the gospel of Jesus Christ is encountered, embraced and embodied. Here you can encounter the gospel through powerful and passionate sermons that are bible based but relevant to living in today’s world. You can embrace the gospel by sharing in an interactive bible study through email. You can embody the gospel by using your computer to share the good news you find here with others.

We are excited to offer you this tool for Christian growth but the best way to discover how God is working in and through the people of Christ UMC is to come and join us in person. Technology is great …. But it can’t take the place of a warm handshake or a friendly smile. You’ll find both at Christ. Come and join the family as we encounter, embrace and embody the gospel together.

 
Rev. Jan Brittain, Senior Pastor
