SUNDAYS IN OCTOBER - 26.2
When you see the number 26.2, do you think of exercise… or family?
We live in a culture of 50-yard dashes and sprints when it comes to family. Few families go the distance anymore. Many hit 13.1, but fewer and fewer are finishing strong at 26.2. So what does it take to go the distance with your faith and with your family? How can you thrive as a family and finish the race of this life together?
These questions, and more like them, are what we’ll focus on during the Sundays of October (7, 14, 21 and 28).
Plan to join us at 10:15 am in the EPICenter where we’ll worship, connect, be resourced and serve the families of our community together.
Plan to invite others to join you on this month-long race as we cheer each other on and as families we “run with perseverance the race marked out for us… fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1b-2a).
For more information, or to find out how you can get involved on the core team, contact Pastor Tim at timfarrell@ucumc.net... or text Tim at 407.417.1123. |
