We are looking for volunteers to help out at upcoming events. We are planning a fundraising dinner for a local family in need on October 17 and will be having our annual community Thanksgiving dinner the weekend before Thanksgiving. It would be a great opportunity to earn community service hours for middle/high schoolers! Please message if interested!

In remembrance of September 11, 2001:

O God, our hope and refuge,
in our distress we come quickly to you...

We come remembering those who lost their lives
in New York, Washington D.C., and Pennsylvania...

We come remembering
and we come in hope,
not in ourselves, but in you...

In commemorating this tragedy,
we give you thanks for your presence
in our time of need
and we seek to worship you in Spirit and in truth,
our guide and our guardian. Amen.

Excerpt of prayer by the Rev. Jeremy Pridgeon, First United Methodist Church, Panama City, Florida, via Discipleship Ministries, The United Methodist Church.
