What's Happening at UMC Madison 8/1/22

REMINDER


Sunday, August 7th is the 9th Sunday after Pentecost



10:00am - Family Worship Service with Communion

11:00 - Fellowship Hour


NEW SERMON SERIES FOR AUGUST


During Jesus’s ministry we find him preaching, teaching, caring for those in need, and participating in miraculous events. These miraculous events are reflections of God’s willingness to perform the extraordinary, but are we missing something? During the month of August, we will reread the powerful stories of Jesus’s miracles with water and see the ripple effect God was creating.

A warm welcome to Rev. Mark Schol and his wife, Meredith Hoxie Schol and their daughters Elise and Nora. If you didn't get to meet them on Sunday, please come out next week or sign up to meet Rev. Mark in one of our small group sessions.
