We are so excited for Sunday, June 21st! Join us at McCormick Park in Williamston at 10:00 AM as we celebrate a major milestone: our 30th Anniversary as a Reconciling Congregation. 🌈

For three decades, we have been intentionally committed to being a fully welcoming, loving, and affirming space for the LGBTQ+ community and absolutely everyone just as they are. We truly can't wait to celebrate this beautiful journey of inclusion with all of you.

To mark the occasion, we are thrilled to welcome Bishop David Bard to lead our outdoor worship, alongside an incredible performance by LanSing out, a spectacular 60-voice community choir.

Here is a quick checklist of logistical details to help you stay comfortable:

What to bring: Remember to pack your own lawn chairs or blankets, water bottles, sunglasses, hats, sunscreen, and bug spray. 🌞

• Families & Kids: There will be no nursery available that day. This is a fully family-friendly service, and children are warmly welcome to participate and celebrate alongside the congregation!

• Parking: Please utilize the side-street parking near the church. We are reserving the main church parking lot specifically for the bishop and our guest choir.

• Shuttle Service: If you need assistance getting down to the park, a shuttle will be running continuously between the church lot and McCormick Park all morning.

Make sure to stay after the service for a free sandwich luncheon and fellowship right there in the park. 🌳🧺

This is a true community-wide celebration and absolutely everyone is welcome. See you out in the park on June 21st!

We are excited about the upcoming Heritage District UMC Celebration and encourage our congregation to attend!

This is a unique opportunity for our entire district to come together for fun, food, and fellowship. It is also a very special time to show our appreciation to some key leaders who are transitioning or retiring. We are gathering to honor:

⭐ Susan Henry, as she steps away from her work as District Treasurer.

⭐ Sarah Gillette, who is retiring from her work as a District Executive Assistant after 30+ years of incredible service!

⭐ Rev. LuAnn Rourke, who will no longer be our Superintendent as of July 1, 2026.

Here are all the details provided by the district leadership:

📅 WHEN: June 13, 2026
🕐 TIME: 2:00 P.M. – 4:00 P.M.
📍 WHERE: Pinckney Arise UMC, 11211 Dexter Pinckney Road, Pinckney MI 48169

What to expect:
The afternoon will begin with a time of worship and recognition for these leaders. Following that, everyone is invited to share a catered buffet and fellowship together.

A few notes from the host site:
Everyone is welcome! Arise UMC will be providing tents, tables, and chairs, but they did mention you might want to bring your own camp chair if you prefer.

Also, if you would like to express your personal thanks, there will be a designated area for cards for any of the staff.

For more info, you can visit Arise UMC’s website at arisechurch.org. Join us in celebrating these faithful servants as we all journey on! 🎈🎊
