Adult Discussion Group

In the Adult Discussion Group this week we’ll take a look at the calling of the first disciples to join Jesus and his ministry (John 1:29-42). How did these first disciples respond to Jesus? How do you respond to a ‘call’? 


Come join us in the Asbury Room after worship this Sunday.

 

This Sunday, January 18th, the Covenant Choir will sing Dan Forrest’s The Work of Christmas with text by Howard Thurman. Join us!  


The next program of classical music in CUMC’s sanctuary will be Music For LOVE on Thursday morning of February 12th at 10:30 a.m. with pianists: Yuly Verbitsky, Carol Enger, and Paul DiDario.
