UM 101: An Introduction to the United Methodist Church

UM 101 is the Basic Course in Lay Servant Ministries and a perfect introduction for anyone who wants to learn more about the United Methodist Church and what it means to be a layperson actively engaged in ministry.

Through this course, participants will explore the three core areas of Ministries - Leading, Caring, and Communicating -while also discovering how faith is lived out in everyday life and how sharing our own stories can become a powerful witness to God's work in the world.

The course will be taught by Pastor Jaye and Pastor Gayle in five two-hour sessions beginning Sunday, July 19 at 2:00 pm at Crossroads.

No prior experience is necessary—just a desire to learn, grow, and serve.

Come discover our heritage, our mission, and the many ways God calls ordinary people to extraordinary ministry.
