September is the month of RITUAL.  In a religious sense this word is antiquated and old fashioned – there are actually entire denominations in Christianity built on the promise that they don’t practice those stuffy rituals. But, aren’t rituals a good thing. Think about your daily and family rituals….they connect you to the important people & they provide structure amidst chaos. In our spiritual life rituals point our lives towards the divine which allows us to see more clearly the work of God in our lives. Isn’t this of paramount importance, lest we just go about life thinking we have all the right answers and that God’s work is a great coincidence. Join us this month as we study and pray through the rituals of our faith. For a copy of the prayer calendar click: https://www.fumccv.org/prayer/.

In September we continue with our Anatomy 101 Sermon Series. The early church talked a lot about being the body of Christ, this is the metaphor they adopted early on when considering how they relate to one another and how they relate to the world. This sermon series will focus on the latter of those relationships. How do we actually be the body of Christ for the world. Each day our devotionals will take us a step deeper in understanding the upcoming Sunday's theme in Anatomy 101.
