A Message from Pastor Evan – April 18, 2024

Rev Evan Dodge

Dear St. Paul’s family, I want to highlight two upcoming events in our church:

This week is Women Speak Sunday. Our worship service will feature the leadership of women; our district superintendent, Rev. Ronell Howard, will be leading worship and preaching. You do not want to miss this wonderful worship experience where we honor and give God thanks to the many ways women lead us in ministry.

National Day of Prayer. Thursday, May 2 is National Day of Prayer. This is a day Christians across the nation will set aside time to pray for local and national concerns. Our church will be open during the afternoon for your own personal prayer, and we will have a joint National Day of Prayer service at Living Faith Bible Church at 7 PM.

May God bless us as we continue to seek him!

Hi fellow servants,

Thought you might find food for thought here. I just edited this article for a publication for which I serve on the editorial board, and it was published today. Some good fodder for discussion in ministry, perhaps we might discuss it soon and see how it can shape our ministry at SPUMC.

Ok, back to my time off!

Blessed Easter season everyone,
Pastor Evan
