CALLING FOR COFFEE HOUR VOLUNTEERS
Did you know HUMC has committees whose members volunteer to host coffee hour once or twice a month? Most of these volunteers are on several committees where they are repeatedly hosting to provide goodies each Sunday.
We are opening this ministry up to Individuals or families who would be willing to occasionally be hosts or hostesses.
It’s simply making coffee, lemonade, bringing homemade or store bought items, and cleaning up afterwards.
A sign-up sheet is located on the counter in the gathering space, outside the front office
Where you can pick a Sunday of your choosing.
Would you consider joining in this time of fellowship?
Please get in touch with Sue Gagne with any questions.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
CALL TO WORSHIP
We believe in one God:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
He is the true and living God,
Worthy to receive glory and honor and power.
He created all things
By his will they existed and were created.
We believe in the Lord Jesus Christ;
All things came into being through him.
He is the image of the invisible God,
The firstborn of all creation
In him all things in heaven and earth were created.
He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
Being in the form of God, he emptied himself
He took the form of a slave, and was born in human likeness.
Being found in human form, he humbled himself;
He became obedient to the point of death— even death on a cross.
Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
He was buried; he was raised on the third day according to the scriptures.
God also highly exalted Jesus:
He gave him the name that is above every name.
God has put all things under his feet:
He made him the head over all things for the church, which is his body.
We believe that Jesus died and rose again:
Through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have died.
As all die in Adam,
So all will be made alive in Christ.
Thanks be to God
Who gives us the victory.
OPENING HYMN: "Lord, Who Throughout These Forty Days” #269 UMH
OPENING PRAYER:
A wildness beckons us: a desert, a barren place,
Yet a palace of blessing and discovery.
Jesus, Steady companion, accompany us,
As we enter the hurtful places, the frightening places,
The dangerous places deep within us.
Jesus, our wise and well-traveled guide,
Lead us into this emptiness,
Where all will fall away,
And we will have nothing but you.
Walk with us through the valley of the shadow of death,
Where we shall be raised, and drink of deep springs. Amen.
