I’m with the DJ | Week of May 27th
Dear Church Family,
It’s been a whirlwind of a last month or so! As some of you know, I’ve been representing our church at General Conference in North Carolina for a couple of weeks. Almost immediately after, I went to Princeton Theological Seminary as part of my service as a Board of Trustees member. Following that week, my family and I took a vacation to enjoy some time together. Serving as a United Methodist Elder (Pastor) often means having responsibilities beyond our local faith community. While, I cherish the greater Church, I missed you all!
I’m looking forward to worshipping with you this Sunday as we celebrate Holy Communion and study Mark 2:23-3:6. I encourage you to read through this passage before we worship together to prepare for our time together.
I hope this message finds you well and filled with the spirit of joy and compassion. As we continue our faith journey together, I am excited to share some upcoming events that highlight our commitment to community and grace.
Federal Way Pride Sponsorship – August 3rd
We are thrilled to announce that our church is once again a proud sponsor of Federal Way Pride on August 3rd. This event is a wonderful opportunity for us to show our support for the LGBTQ+ community and celebrate diversity and inclusion. If you are interested in supporting this event, whether through volunteering, donations, or simply attending, please let the church office know. Your participation can make a significant impact as we stand together in love and acceptance.
Abundant Grace Event – July 13th
Mark your calendars for our next Abundant Grace event on July 13th! These gatherings are a cornerstone of our church's mission, providing a time for fellowship, worship, and community service. Whether you are a regular attendee or new to our church, we invite you to join us for a time filled with inspiration and connection. Details about the event, including the schedule and volunteer opportunities, will be shared soon. We look forward to seeing you there and experiencing the abundant grace of God together.
Let us continue to walk in faith, supporting and uplifting one another as we strive to make a positive difference in our community by sharing the love of Jesus. If you have any questions or would like more information about these events, please do not hesitate to contact the church office.
By staying engaged and involved, we can strengthen our bonds and further our mission to spread love and grace. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you at these upcoming events.
Remember, your involvement in these events not only enriches our church community but also extends our reach to the broader community around us. Let's come together and make a difference!
Blessings,
Pastor DJ
