What's Happening
Over the years, there have been many rifts and divisions over important issues such as Revolution, Slavery, War, who could administer the Sacraments, Race Relations, and Women's rights to be ministers. And now the issue of equal treatment of all God's children. All have been debated at this very pulpit from various sides of the issue.
It’s been a while since our whole family went to church. All of us, but especially Ruby and Sam, were greeted with such love today. It reminded me of something Sam said about Dumbarton United Methodist Church when he found out there was a Pokémon stop at the church. I said, “Wow, that must be your favorite thing about the church.” He said, “No, my favorite thing is how loving the people are. The second is the Pokémon stop.” Hope you all experience a community that reflects God’s deep love for you just as you are.--Jennifer Coulter Stapleton

Jeehye Kim Pak is looking forward to serving as lead teacher for our youth and intermediate Sunday School classes this season. The youth class for sixth through twelfth graders will meet at 10 a.m. Jeehye anticipates lively discussions and probing questions about matters of faith, matters of the day and matters of life. "
The intermediate class, for second through fifth graders, will meet during worship after the children's witness to the world. This class will gather in the Noah's Park classroom, which is a great size for the half a dozen current members. Expect lots of interactive and moving around kinds of activities for this group
Godly Play, for children age 3 through first grade, will be held during the church service in the separate Godly Play room.
