Alert:
Due to the Covid-19 virus, the church building is closed. But we continue to support each other through notes, phone calls, emails, and online worship.
We are in the process of opening the church to in-person worship, but are not quite ready.
Our target opening date (with safety protocols) is May 2, 2021 – so stay tuned!
Easter Season – Living the Resurrection
Of all the high holy days on the calendar of faith, Easter is by far the highest and the holiest. There is no exuberance that is too loud, no expression of joy that is over the top, no exercise of new life that can be shut down. Easter calls for excess. Don’t let it slip in silently; it needs brass accompaniment.
And not just on one day. Easter is not a day; it is a season. That is why our worship series grabs hold of Easter and runs all the way to Pentecost, breathless and panting for the Spirit to come and breathe new life into our lungs so that we can endure the journey through the long season after Pentecost.
The joy of Easter needs to sustain us until the Spirit can launch us into the next phase of experiencing the kin-dom of God.
In-Person Worship begins May 2, 2021
from 9:00-10:00am.
Drive-through Communion will be discontinued.
We will have communion during the service on the first Sunday of each month.
Safety measures include:
- Masks are required.
- Reservations are required. Call or email the church office to make a reservation.
- Social distancing will be maintained.
- The Communion elements are distributed in a clean, sealed container.
Recorded Worship Services at Phillips UMC
For those who prefer to worship from the safety and comfort of their homes, we are providing a video version so we can still have the shared experience of worship. While it is no substitute for the welcoming hugs and handshakes that usually accompany our services, we hope that it can provide some comfort and inspiration. May God be with you wherever you are!
Please click on the service below, then click again to start the video.
