WORSHIP AT MARIPOSA UMC

In-Person Worship
In-person worship is held every Sunday at 9:30 AM, and it’s a joy to once again share the Choral Benediction Circle and our after-worship Coffee Hour. Sign-up sheets are available for those who would like to bring treats or items to share. We’re also delighted to now offer a Welcoming Guest packet for anyone joining us in person for the first time, helping them feel at home from the moment they arrive.

This Months Scripture
THIS MONTH'S SCRIPTURE REFLECTION


Acts 2:17-21

Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. How? With Our Prayers, Our Presence, Our Gifts, Our Service , and Our Witness. "In the Last Days," God says, "I will pour out my Spirit on every kind of people:
Your sons will prophesy, also your daughters; Your young men will see visions, your old men dream dreams.  When the time comes, I'll pour out my Spirit On those who serve me, men and women both, and they'll prophesy.  I'll set wonders in the sky above and signs on the earth below, Blood and fire and billowing smoke, the sun turning black and the moon blood-red, Before the Day of the Lord arrives, the Day tremendous and marvelous; And whoever calls out for help to me, God, will be saved."  God is pouring out the Spirit "on every kind of people." Not just a select few anointed ones, but everybody. We saw this at Annual Conference in June this summer.

TGIF Kids Club
CHILDREN'S MINISTRY - TGIF KIDS CLUB

Join us for an exciting journey of learning and growth as we gear up to kick off the Friday afternoon children's program at Mariposa United Methodist Church. Starting right after school on September 6, this engaging program is a wonderful opportunity for children to explore their faith in a nurturing environment.

As we embark on this meaningful endeavor, we're reaching out to our community for support. If you feel called to contribute and be a part of this ministry, we encourage you to connect with Gussie Kidd. Rest assured, no prior experience is required as comprehensive training will be provided to equip you to work effectively with the children.

Let's come together to create a positive impact on the young hearts and minds in our community. Your involvement is not just appreciated - it's transformative.

Visit our TGIF page.

Dream Weavers
DREAM WEAVERS

Dream Weavers is Restarting! Dream Weavers are crafters who use their gifts with knitting needles and crochet hooks to craft a variety of items, including prayer shawls, chemo caps, scarves and hats for the homeless, and caps for premature babies.

We meet on the fourth Thursday of every month at 9:30 am in the second-floor conference room (Joe Kidd Hall).

All crafters are welcome who want to share their skills and make a difference in people's lives. We also welcome donations of yarn for our members to use. If you have a stash that needs a home, bring it to the church. We especially welcome small amounts that can be used in creative shawls and scarves.

Visit our Dream Weavers web page for information and lots of resources.
