A Place to Grow
We offer Zoom and in-person gatherings for bible study. For more information about these opportunities, contact Rev. Cindy Riddick at criddick@stjohnsumctc.org.
Advent Bible Study — Begins Monday, December 2 at 11 AM and 7 PM
Join this group as we prepare for the celebration of the birth of Jesus. We will explore the traditional themes of Peace, Hope, Love, and Joy through the lens of our Wesleyan heritage. There is a Zoom option if you cannot meet in person. Rev. Cindy Riddick will lead. Books are $10. Sign up in the foyer or contact Cindy at criddick@stjohnsumctc.org.
Journal Your Gratitude
Beginning with Ash Wednesday, we have encouraged our community of faith to keep a gratitude journal. As Easter Sunday came and went, we continue to find value in writing down something to be thankful for each day. God is good and God’s blessings can be found daily. Today is a wonderful day to begin or continue your list of daily blessings. For an example of a gratitude journal, click HERE.
Daily Meditation Time
Time with God is one way that we grow as disciples of Christ. We are encouraged to find time each day to sit quietly, to pray, to listen, to read scripture, and to meditate on the Word of God. Daily devotionals are one way to spend time learning and growing in the faith. As a faith community, we make The Upper Room devotional available in both regular and large print. If you would like a copy of the November/December 2024 issue, please contact the church office or email criddick@stjohnsumctc.org.
