A Great Dad

Since next Sunday is Father’s Day, we will pause our study in Acts for this message from Psalm 103, which highlights the qualities of compassion, presence, and faithfulness. Discover how ordinary dads can have an extraordinary impact by reflecting the love and grace of our Heavenly Father. Psalm 103:1-18; Ephesians 6:4

For clearer communication, please use the provided Prayer Request Cards found in your pew’s hymnal rack.

This will help Pastor Thom with spelling names and clarity of details. It will also help save time, as we won’t need to repeat everything for the congregation and those listening online. Prayer Requests can also be sent to our e-mail – SouthVernonUMC@gmail.com

Please see Ada Carey for donation bottles if you would like to support this worthwhile and vital ministry in our community.

SAVE THE DATE!

Get a head start on your summer and mark your calendars now for a
very special time of fellowship!

Sunday, August 9^th, 4:00 pm

The Rossers and Newcombs have graciously offered to host this summer’s picnic fellowship!

There will for sure be plenty of ice cream and popcorn, and some other very nice things that are in the works!

We will gather rain or shine, in that there will be a large tent at the Rossers’ home. Handicapped restrooms will be accessible.

Several outdoor games and activities will be available, as well!
