Igniting Ministry
A powerful voice within the United Methodist community, we are the "evangelistic advertiser". Presently we are working on an approach to implement the "Rethink Church" campaign. In 2011 we are looking at our yearly events - The Spaghetti Dinner/Variety Show, Night to Unite and the possibility of an Old Fashioned Picnic/Pig Roast and Corn Roast. As an outreach ministry, we can communicate our faith by speaking and listening to persons both within and outside the church throughout the world, to utilize all appropriate means of communication.

Adult Sunday School
This ministry has had a great success drawing 8 - 14 adults every Sunday. Each Sunday is focused on the scripture lessons used during service.

Care Ministry
This ministry is responsible for Care Boxes that are given to chemotherapy patients in the area. The Sunday School classes are able to take part in this ministry by helping to decorate the boxes that are used. From this ministry two others have been created, the Prayer Shawl Ministry has been a great success, to date 99 shawls have been given to people in need of comfort. The Prayer Quilt Ministry has also been very successful as quilts are made and give to people in the area.
