Service of Hope & Light – December 8
A Service of Hope & Light is a service to help bring hope & light to those who are struggling at this time of year. Some come because they are lonely, estranged or far from home. Others come suffering from illness or addiction or abuse. Some come who are overwhelmed with worry for loved ones or our world, grief, conflict. We are not alone. Come and rest in Hope & Light on Sunday, December 8 from 4:00-6:00 p.m. in the sanctuary with refreshments afterward in Crossroads.

Christmas Eve Volunteers Needed!
Volunteers are needed to help serve on Christmas Eve! On Christmas Eve 2023, AUMC welcomed 1,959 worshippers. We expect that number or more this year and will need many helpers to welcome all, love all, and serve all. We need greeters and communion servers for every service. No experience is necessary as we will provide instructions. We will also need a 5:00 p.m. Parking Team to ensure the senior adult lot is reserved for those with limited mobility.
