Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is a profound reminder of love, courage, and selflessness. As we gather with family and enjoy this Memorial Day, may we also take time to reflect with gratitude for those who made these moments possible.

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13

Please note: our church office is closed today in observance of Memorial Day and will reopen tomorrow.

🎁 Be part of something meaningful this summer through our Annual Christmas Shoebox Project at Murray First UMC!

Help share the love of Christ by providing practical items and small gifts that bring care, joy, and hope to children and families. Stop by the bulletin boards in the narthex to pick up as many donation cards as you’d like and return your donated items to the church office by June 18.

Can’t shop? Monetary donations are welcome and will help purchase additional items and cover shipping costs.

📦 We’ll gather to pack shoeboxes on June 26—if you’d like to help, contact Kendra at [email protected].

Together, we can make a difference—one shoebox at a time. ❤️

Even though our regular Wednesday and Sunday night programming has wrapped up for the semester, we have a jam-packed summer ahead for our Murray1st UMK kids and Murray1st UMY youth!

Our UMKids will take part in Mission Mondays throughout the summer (June 15 & 29, July 20 & 27), spending their mornings serving through church and community projects. They’ll also participate in our very first CAMP LIGHT Day Camp — combining the fun of VBS and day camp into one unforgettable week of fellowship, games, worship, and adventure!

Fellowship 456 has an exciting summer planned as well! They’ll kick things off with a trip to Mammoth Cave for a day of exploration, fun, and fellowship together. Throughout the summer, they’ll also be part of the excitement at CAMP LIGHT, building friendships and growing in faith. To wrap up the season, Fellowship 456 will head out on their annual retreat, a special time filled with fun activities, meaningful worship, and opportunities to grow closer as a group.

Our UMYouth will have plenty of opportunities for summer fellowship, service, and connection. The summer begins with a trip to St. Louis for a Cardinals game, followed by serving at the fair. Many of our students will also help lead CAMP LIGHT as activity partners and mentors before heading out for a trip to Holiday World. They’ll finish the summer with their annual mission trip — this year in Oklahoma!

Want or need to know more about any of these activities? Contact us at the church office via email at [email protected] or by phone at 270.753.3812!
