Newday Praise Worship at Plainfield UMC

05/31/2026

We will explore how God has always brought peace into chaos, beginning with the “tohu wa-bohu” of Genesis 1 and continuing through Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4. Through both passages, we see that God does not abandon chaotic seasons but instead enters them, hovers over them, and speaks peace into them. Whether we are facing major transitions, uncertainty, or storms in life, the same voice that said “Let there be light” still speaks “Peace, be still” today.

Mother’s Day is right around the corner! Some of our weekday teachers are planning a sweet project—adding each child’s hand print to a white coffee mug as a keepsake gift.

Instead of purchasing new mugs, we’d love to give gently used white coffee cups a second life. If you have any with at least one blank side that you’re willing to donate, it would mean so much to us (and help reduce waste too!). We will need them by May 1. Thank you for supporting our classrooms!

Contact Charity Aton at [email protected] with questions or donations. Donations can also be dropped off in the main office.

We share with heavy hearts and deep gratitude the passing of Lynn Ellen Blosser (née Hillsamer), who entered eternal rest on March 25, 2026, at the age of 75.

Lynn was a devoted wife to Rev. Theodore Blosser and a woman whose life overflowed with faith, music, and love for others. A gifted musician and faithful servant, she spent decades leading choirs, directing handbells, and creating worship that lifted hearts to God. Even through lifelong health challenges, she lived with strength, grace, and a deep sense of purpose.

Lynn is survived by her son, Daniel (Susan), and her grandchildren, Andrew and Benjamin. She was preceded in death by her husband, Ted.

Visitation will be Saturday, April 11, from 12–3 p.m., with a memorial service at 3 p.m. at Plainfield United Methodist Church. The service will also be live streamed at https://pumc.sermon.net/broadcast/broadcast/21869390.

We give thanks for Lynn’s life and the love she shared so freely. Her song continues in all of us.

Bring a little beauty with you this Easter.

On Easter Sunday, we invite you to bring fresh flowers to worship as we flower the cross together. It’s a simple, meaningful way to celebrate the resurrection—watching the cross become a sign of new life, color, and hope.

Bring whatever you have—flowers from your yard, a small bouquet from the store, bright blooms or simple stems. Every flower matters, and every one helps tell the story: Christ is risen.

We can’t wait to see the cross come alive—with you. 🌸✝️
