Dear Church Family and Friends,
This weekend, we joyfully continue our worship series, “Draw Near.” We're deeply grateful to our partners at Sanctified Arts for their invaluable contribution and creation of this series.
Our focus for this weekend will be on the Gospel of Luke, specifically chapter 3, verses 7-18. Just like last week, I want to encourage you to read (or re-read) the first 3 chapters of Luke.
For those who haven't yet obtained a daily devotional booklet for this series, please feel free to reach out to our church office at office@fwumc.org, or simply visit us at church. We'll be more than happy to provide you with a copy.
Wishing you grace and peace,
Pastor DJ
Grace and Peace,
Christmas Eve offering
Our Christmas Eve offering will be shared between three ways we share the love of Jesus in our communities.
Riverton Park UMC’s ministry for Asylum seekers.
Riverton Park United Methodist Church in Tukwila is living out Jesus’ call to care for God’s children: a ministry of hospitality for more than 400 asylum seekers (legally), including 100+ children, who are living on the church grounds. Many are from Angola in Africa and Venezuela in South America.
I spent a couple of days this week with the people living at Riverton Park UMC and it’s truly an amazing sight.
Abundant Grace ministries
This is a chance to help our faith community continue to reach out to our neighbors.
Sunshine Fund
When people come to our doors and ask for help with rent, utilities or other urgent items, our church does our best to support them with this special line item we call the Sunshine Fund.
