This Advent study will challenge you through stories, art, and Bible study to discover what it means to have Christ born anew in you this Christmas and what it means to be Christ's hands, feet, head, and heart in this world.

A thank you note to HMUMC from our District Superintendent!
Beloved,
Thank you and God bless you for being faithful to the Conference Fair Share Mission Asking - Apportionments. Thank you for paying 100 % before the years end. Thank you for digging deep not only in the dirt to build your new worship space but to digger deeper in your pockets so that others might have places to worship, so that missionaries might have needed supplies, so that retired clergy might have insuranc
e, so that students in our seminaries might have help to receive a quality Christ centered education, so that the poor might find comfort, food, shelter and healing.
I am so grateful to each of you for the spirit you have shown and the faithfulness you continue to hold fast to in Christ Jesus.
You have my undying appreciation.
Grace, peace, and the love of Christ,
Rev. Dana A. Everhart
Superintendent of The Atlanta Emory District of The United Methodist Church
