Pray to Keep Discipleship a Priority

We are entering into a busy time for our church again. During September we will be organizing Disciple Groups such as 12x12, 144, and maybe even a couple other discipleship groups using other formats.

COVID-19 is making things a little harder to get organized this year. I am asking for you to be in Prayer for SUMC, Pastors, and Group Leaders as we seek to keep Discipleship a priority.

The Great Commission ask us to go and MAKE DISCIPLES of all nations. We usually say go make disciples to make disciples. Remember the Butterfly Effect? It begins with US, so we do not want to be removed from the picture. It is through Discipleship classes that we can help do our part in making disciples.

Pastor Philip will be giving details on sign ups in the very near future so be on the lookout for those details.

October is Pastor Appreciation Month and plans are being made to once again do 31 days of prayer for our Pastors as we did last year. Only this year there will not be handouts. The daily directions will be done on the church webpage and maybe Facebook. Also if you are not already, please include Shalimar UMC in you prayers.

If we pray for our Pastors, Shalimar UMC, and each other, could it be said "The Sky is the Limit?"

In Jesus Name AMEN.
