Celebration Sunday & Meet at the Well
Sunday, May 19 - Pentecost Sunday
ONE SERVICE ONLY AT 11:00
POTLUCK LUNCH TO FOLLOW WORSHIP! To sign up to help click HERE
**UPDATE - Our very own Bishop Ruben Saenz will be guest preaching at the service!
Celebration Sunday is a special, blended service including contemporary and traditional elements. We will have just one service at 11:00. This is an opportunity for us to worship as one church body. Our schedule is as follows:
10:00 - Christian Education (normal schedule)
11:00 - Combined Celebration Worship Service
12:00 - Meet at the Well - Childcare will be available
Meet at the Well is a semi-annual event to update the church on Wellspring’s ministries and break bread together. We’ll hear about our growing ministries such as justice ministries, updates on YMCA, family ministry developments, and more. We’ll also hear a few highlights from General Conference and celebrate the dedication of our building. You won’t want to miss it!
| Do you like talking to people? Do you like to smile? Do you like talking about Wellspring?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then talk to Frank Jacks Jr. (jacksf@wellumc.org) about being a Sunday morning greeter. We are looking for people to help out on the first or third Sunday before 11am worship, and second Sunday before 9:00 worship. All are welcome!
