Get ready to sing, dance, and worship all summer long! 🎶🌴☀️

Our VBS playlist is here! These are all the songs your kids will be hearing (and probably singing nonstop in the car 😄) during VBS in June. Start listening now so everyone can come ready to worship and have fun together!

Drop your child’s favorite song in the comments once you’ve listened! 🎧

Holy Week is upon us, but between now and then, take note of these fantastic opportunities to connect and serve:

SERVE DAY
Tomorrow, March 28, from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall, we will be putting together hygiene kits in collaboration with the United Methodist Committee on Relief. All ages and skill levels are welcome! We are also collecting content items for disaster relief buckets. Items collected can be dropped off in the Fellowship Hall during Serve Day or in the breezeway on Sunday, March 29. Dollar Tree gift cards are welcome. See Tuesday's email for the list of items: https://conta.cc/4t67QJg

PALM SUNDAY
Our annual Palm Sunday reenactment, complete with a live donkey, children singing, and narration, will happen on the front lawn at 9:30 a.m. Then, we will make our way to the sanctuary for one of the most festive Sundays of the year. Don't forget to pick up a palm cross and a palm frond on your way into worship. Our worship Sunday will propel us into Holy Week, and that means we will hear the beloved "Holy City" by our choir. This year, the congregation will be invited to sing the chorus, so I know you will want to raise your voices, as we remember Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem.

ORGAN RECITAL
Join us in the Sanctuary on Palm Sunday afternoon at 4:00 p.m. for a special Organ Recital offered by our very own Dr. Victoria Shorokhova. With repertoire that spans hundreds of years from Bach to Duruflé to new living composers, this Palm Sunday Organ Recital will be a powerful offering at the start of Holy Week.

Children’s Sunday was a great day at FUMC! I’m so proud of these children and thankful for the parents who encourage them to serve their church in this way. 🧂💡
