FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
OKMULGEE, OKLAHOMA
I’m writing this morning to let you know that a week from Sunday on
May 20, will be Senior Sunday. We will worship in a combined
service in the sanctuary at 11:00 a.m. Following the service, we will
share in a fellowship dinner and honor our graduate in the Rowe
Family Life Center. The meat for the meal will be provided but we are
asking each family or individual to bring their favorite dish to pass so
that we can share in this time of fellowship and celebrate the accom-
plishments of our graduate.
Please mark this special Sunday on your calendar and plan on
worshiping as a single congregation on May 20. It always feels good
to worship as a single group on occasion so that we can keep in
touch with one another and get to know new people from each of the
services. We hope to see you this Sunday and especially for the
combined service on May 20.
In Christ’s Service,
Roland
ALPHA @ First United Methodist
We believe everyone should have the chance to
explore the Christian faith, ask questions and
share their point of view.
