Next week, on Pentecost (May 23) we will officially start our Summer Worship Schedule: 10am at Common Ground, together with both churches. Bring your chairs and we will spread out around the yard and join together in a more casual worship setting in God's creation! 

A lot of people spend weekends away from home during summer months, so it is the perfect time to add a mid-week worship option. 

Starting the Wednesday after school is out, June 9th, we will come together on Wednesday Evenings for a more casual worship service in the Hopkins UMC sanctuary at 6:30pm. The service will focus around the same scripture, sermon, and prayers as Sunday morning, but will bring in some different music options. We also expect that the service will be a bit shorter than Sunday morning. For those who are unable to worship in person, we will share this service live over Zoom.

This is a great option to invite people, outside of our church family, to try out! Let’s spread the word!

There was a mobile vaccine clinic in the HUMC parking lot this past Wednesday.  Since that mobile clinic will not be returning to give second shots, we realized some may have an issue with having transportation to receive their 2nd shot. We passed out cards, at the clinic, inviting anyone who needs a ride to contact the church. Mitzi is coordinating rides for those who contact her. Let Mitzi know if you would be willing to give a ride to someone in need of the help.

Start thinking about and submitting anything you would like included in the next Newsletter (June/July). Event announcements, accentuating the positives, thank yous, upcoming meetings, address changes, etc. 

The Ad Board is in need of a recording Secretary. The Secretary is responsible for being at meetings and writing down what happens, typing it up and submitting them to be printed for the next meeting. If you have been thinking about wanting to step up into a leadership role, this is a great foot in the door! 

Thank you so much for your faithful donations!
The needs right now are:  macaroni & cheese, potatoes, pasta, and canned fruit. Drop off Wednesedays from 10am to 1pm and 5pm to 7pm. Bring them to church or contact Mitzi or Pastor Linda about a drop off time.
