MESSAGE FROM PASTOR JAKE
 
Greetings MMC!
 
I want to thank Peggy Thomas, Lindy Stahlman, Carol Tummons, Wendy Kvale, and Patsy Wilson for the effort they are putting into Planning and carrying out our Services.
 
Also, I would like to thank Sue Wurtzbacher for going out of her way to brighten my office with a new flower. Thank you, Sue!
 
I would also like to thank the Choir, volunteers, and everyone else who is participating in the ministry of the Church. This past week, Linda Kidd and the 24/7 Ministry Team came together and made the day special for a group of people in McCormick. Through a nice Christmas meal, a gift, singing, and fellowship, MMC made a difference by bringing joy to someone’s face. Thank you to Linda Kidd, Sue Mitchell, Lindy Stahlman, Gordon Waine, Shannon Stewart, Shirley Branson, and Fred and Carol Fuller for helping with this. Small blessings have the potential to have a big impact.
 
Thank you also to Nancy Vereb, Lola Rek, Polly Ann Prather, and Janet Smith for making a Quilt for Baby Alexander.
 
As Christmas day approaches, let us remember the Christ child and the potential we have to bring Peace, Joy, Hope, and Love to others. Christmas is a wonderful time of the year and one for all to celebrate, participate in, and enjoy. It’s my hope and prayer that you will feel loved and appreciated and valued this Christmas season.

CONGREGATIONAL CARE COMMITTEE

The Congregational Care Committee wants you to know they are there to help you if you ever need transportation, meals or a visitor! Please contact Kim Jackson if you or someone you know needs help or if you would like to be added to the list of volunteers.
 

Volunteers Needed for Congregational Care Team

Dear Church Family,
 
One of the most powerful ways we reflect the love of Christ is by caring for one another in times of need. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, facing a difficult season, or navigating a time of grief, small
acts of kindness—like a hot meal, a ride to an appointment, or a friendly visit—can make a world of difference.
 

We are currently building a list of volunteers who are willing to step in when needs arise. You don’t need to commit to every request—just let us know how you feel called to help:

Meal Ministry – Provide or deliver a home-cooked or store-bought meal to someone in need.

Transportation Help – Offer rides to church, appointments, or errands for those unable to drive.

Visitation Ministry – Visit homebound members or those in the hospital or care facilities to provide companionship and encouragement.

 
If you’re willing to be on our list of helpers in any of these areas, please send Kim Jackson an email  or add
your name/email to the sign-up sheet in Fellowship Hall.
 
You’ll be contacted as needs arise, with the opportunity to accept or decline depending on your schedule.
 
Let’s continue being the hands and feet of Jesus—loving one another well in both big and small ways.
 
In Christ’s love,
Your Congregational Care Team
