We're joining with Zion UMC and Providence UMC to form a Christian Fellowship Group! All ages are welcome to join in their events and excursions, and we hope you'll join us. Our current plans are:

If you have participated in this program in the past or if it is totally new to you, now is the time to try it out! It exists for the sole purpose of putting members of our Church family together in small groups to share a meal, enjoy fellowship, and form or strengthen friendships. Sign up on the Connection Card or with the online form HERE! If you have questions, call Shelia Ponder at 757-870-88848 for more information.

During seasons of severe weather, our church family wants every member to feel safe, supported, and reminded that they are not alone. We are beginning the Congregation Call Ministry, a simple outreach effort in which a church member will check in during events such as ice storms, power outages, hurricanes, tornadoes, or extreme heat. These brief calls or texts help us ensure well being and identify any needs that may arise. To care for you effectively, we are gathering your preferred method of contact. You may choose a text message, a phone call, or opt out if you prefer not to be contacted. Please click HERE to indicate your preference.

Our Healthy Church, Healthy Community team will meet quarterly on the second Saturday at 10:00 a.m. in the Church Library. The meeting dates for 2026 are August 8th, and November 14th.
These gatherings are a time to share ideas, explore needs, and plan meaningful projects for the year ahead. Your voice and vision matter as we work together to strengthen our church and serve our community as disciples of Christ.
Everyone is encouraged to join the team and take part in this important ministry.

In February, we delivered 15 bags & 2 boxes of food to St. Luke's Food Pantry. Many thanks to everyone who contributed for the holiday season. In February we will collect the usual food items, plus cans of soup and crackers for Soup-er Bowl Sunday. Our next delivery date will be March 25th. Many thanks for all the cans of soup!!!

Note: We cannot accept expired dates on donated food items, nor can we accept items that have been opened or have been partially used. Thank you so much for your careful attention to this matter.

​The newly formed Grief Group decided to continue meeting twice a month, on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 1 pm.
We welcome church members and others to join us and come when they can. No need to register. Just come!

​“The Class Meeting” meets on Wednesdays at 1PM. “The Class Meeting” is transitioning from the 8 weeks of learning about the purpose of the Wesley Class Meetings.  Moving forward, the group will be focused on growing closer to God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. The Class Meeting will focus on asking ourselves: How is my relationship with God today?  When did I feel the closes to God this week? Why?  Did I feel alone at some point this week where God did not seem to be with me?  Did He call me to do a special act of kindness.  If you are interested in this small group, please contact Pastor B or the church office.

​Be silent and know that I am God. Psalms 46:10 Where are you at 12 Noon till 1 PM on Wednesday and Friday?  Do you have 30 minutes, 45 minutes or even one hour to spend your special time with God?   In your church, it allows you to be focused on your special time with God. Set aside special time with God. Twice a week, our sanctuary will be open for an hour of quiet reflection and introspection. This will be a time for independent prayer, meditation, or silently talking to God. Join us either on Wednesdays or Fridays from 12 noon to 1 pm.
