June Worship in the Ministry Center


Living Spirit, Holy Fire

O For a Thousand Tongues

God's Gonna Set This World on Fire

House of the Lord


Rev. Stephen Grantham

Scripture Reading: Mark 11:12-14, 20-25

Why Is That In the Bible?

Wasn't a Good Year for Fig Trees

Air Services continues to be on-site this week, identifying the root problem of the air conditioner in the Ministry Center. We anticipate it will be fully functional on Sunday.

Thank you for your continued patience.

Church News

Join us for a meaningful and inspiring Summer Adult Education Series, held every Sunday morning in July in the Ministry Center, as each of our Adult Sunday School classes takes a short break from meeting in their classrooms. Each week, we’ll hear powerful stories from community leaders and mission partners who are making a difference—locally and globally. Together, we’re invited to Go To Know—to listen, learn, and be moved to action.


Sunday Schedule:

  • 9:15 AM – Worship in the Sanctuary
  • 10:30 AM – Light Breakfast & Fellowship
  • 10:45 AM – Speaker Introduction
  • 10:50–11:30 AM – Go To Know Presentation
  • 11:30 AM – Conclusion & Sending Out


A Love Offering will be collected each week in support of the presenting organization.

Series Lineup:

  • July 6 – Malena Stone with PACK (People of Action Caring for Kids)
  • July 13 – Yvonne Pryor with Inner City Night Shelter
  • July 20 – Alex Galvez & Rebecca with Transitions: The Guatemala Mission Team – The Christ Child’s Nest
  • July 27 – Andrea Epting with HUGS (Heads Up Guidance Services)


We look forward to seeing you there as we journey together to Go To Know.

A Fundraiser of Another Kind


Here’s one you don’t have to write a check, sign a pledge card, attend an event, or even bake a cake. In fact, it is easy and may even take you on a trip down memory lane. Take a look in your jewelry box and see if there are any broken gold chains, single earrings, or items it is unlikely you will wear again (nor would your offspring want). If so, why not turn these past treasures into treasures that will have an eternal impact? 


What has begun in a Sunday School class is now being shared with the entire congregation. In the past two months, class members and maybe a few friends have already raised $11,269 by donating their broken jewelry, unused silverware, and coins. 


Your donations can be left in the church office or brought on Sunday. All collected gold and silver items are being turned in to a reputable dealer who, in turn, writes a check to IOHUMC to continue the work of the Lord as it is used to repair His gathering place. Let’s continue the work of answering His call.
