Along the Way
Back to School / Proud Pastoral Moments!
Well, it’s official! We’re in the fall school semester when
things begin to change and for many of us, our routines become more structured. Hopefully, it’s been a good summer
for you and your family. One of the greatest things for me has
been all the different things happening at FUMC of Pace. If
you haven’t been keeping up, let me share some of the great
“proud pastoral moments” for me.
We’ve seen three different mission trips depart with the opportunity to bless
them in worship. We have experienced an amazing Patriotic Celebration Sunday
with our wonderful choir led by Chris (whom we sent off with blessings and
love) and a beautifully decorated sanctuary/CCC thanks to Mary & Roxy and
their team. This was followed by the amazing hospitality of our UMM, Christian
Faith & Hope and many others who contributed to the potluck.
Vacation Bible School was such a blessing with even more stunning decorations, where we touched the lives of nearly 50 different children and numerous
volunteers. A huge thanks to the team of
leaders, shepherds, support in the set-up/
clean-up, decorations and tasty dinners for
anyone who had an interest in joining us.
The summer continued with more of our
amazing volunteers who stepped up and
helped prepare for area churches as we
hosted the Fifth Sunday Sing/Potluck
Fellowship. There’s no way we could have done it without the leadership of
Donna Palmer, Rev. Mike Roberts and the numerous others who stepped in to
decorate, set-up and clean up the CCC.
This was truly a proud pastor moment for me that seemingly wraps up our
summer as we blessed backpacks, students, teachers, staff, and even families to
mark the beginning of school this past week.

TEACHER:
Three Musketeers of the Gospels
Christian Community Center Classroom
Tuesday mornings 6:30 - 7:15 a.m.
John Swank
The Three Musketeers of the Gospels is a story based on Scripture, history, tradition, Holy Land geography, and supposition about these men coming together to
follow their King. They were common men, just as we are, and because they
were called to follow the King, they changed the world. This story will blend the
four gospel stories into a probable harmony of the events as they unfold.
