In-person Messy Church at Ghent UMC is returning on Sunday, May 16, 4-5:30 p.m.! It’s finally time to get messy together again with crafts, games, and activities in our garden, followed by Celebration time on the front steps. May’s theme is "Drop everything" based on Mark 1:16-20. We learn that the life of a disciple is one of continuously being open to Jesus, to hearing his call and being ready to drop anything that stands between us and Jesus. Is God calling you to serve in his name? You are unique and special to God. Do you believe he may call you to follow him in a new way?Have you ever been called by God?What is Messy Church? Messy Church is “Church, but not as you know it.” It is Christ-centered, for all ages*, and based on creativity, hospitality and celebration. To learn more about Messy Church’s values, click here.
