Dear Shawnee UMC Family,


Please join us this Sunday for Worship

in-person or on Facebook Live at 10:30am.


The title of Pastor Brennan's sermon series is


"All In"


The title of the message is


"Common Good"



The Scripture is


1 Corinthians 12:4-13


4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5 and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord; 6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone. 7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8 To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the discernment of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are activated by one and the same Spirit, who allots to each one individually just as the Spirit chooses.


One Body with Many Members

12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

United Women in Faith would like to thank everyone for their support of our recent Book & Bake Sale. Without your support and help we could not have had such a successful event. 


This event is our big fund raiser to raise funds to support our local, national and global missions. Also, a big thank you to all of the volunteers and bakers that gave time, talents and jewelry donations to this endeavor. It truly takes a village/community to make things happen.
