Which of the following is closest to your idea of heaven?
It's a realm of unimaginable beauty and love
It's the "insideness" of creation -- things the way God means them to be
It's somewhere among the other seven dimensions in string theory
It's where we will be reunited with our loved ones
It's going to be a total surprise -- who's there, what it's like
I'll be able to keep an eye on loved ones

"CHRIST IS the truth. He is truth so clear that we can see through to the bottom of the sea. When my eyes are bad, it seems that my eyeglasses are dim. The water is clear, but when my eyes are bad, I cannot see the bottom. I cannot distinguish between water and land. As my eyes get better, I can gradually see. When we brighten our souls in regard to God, it is like that. When we have an experience of God, and live in God, our souls become clear, and then the universe becomes clear. When our hearts become clear, back of all things we find there is the plan of God." --Toyohiko Kagawa

Congregation Fellowship Meal

On the second Sunday of each month, we have a fellowship meal after worship, celebrating the month's church member birthdays. The meal is prepared; a free-will donation is invited.  

Colombia Mission Trip

A third Moose Lake to Colombia mission team was completed in January 2012. The group focused chiefly on completing two schoolrooms at the Vista Hermosa secondary school in Brisas del Mar.These structures will permit the school to grow tenth and eleventh grades!  

Your supportive prayers are asked as plans are laid and potential members consider God's call to serve on future trips. A next mission is tentatively projected for March 2013.

 

 

Community Garden

Moose Lake UMC shares its property with the United Community Garden, organized originally under the Horizon Program. A double plot yields produce  for the local food shelf. The 2012 gardening season is upon us. All plots are taken. UCG members gather periodically for potluck supper and conversation about gardening and development plans. Call for more information.

Accessibility Program

Our congregation makes itself accessible to persons with disabilities. Personal sound systems are available to the hearing-impaired. There is a grade-level entrance with a lift to help the mobility-challenged enter our building and move from floor to floor. Two accessible restrooms are available. Our worshipers faithfully refrain from wearing fragrances in consideration of those with allergies, and we avoid use of hyperallergenic cleaning preparations.

Nursery Care

We provide nursery care during the Sunday  worship service. Ask an usher for details.
