Jammin’ with Josiah

Do you love live music? Have a secret talent or passion you’ve been hiding?

Join us FRIDAY, APRIL 19th at 7PM in the Wesley Building for our “Jammin’ with Josiah” night of music!

Musicians (and audience members) of all skill levels are invited to come out and just JAM– no need to practice, prepare, or worry. We’ll be rockin’ out with everything from The Beatles to Led Zeppelin.

Come hangout, listen to tunes, make some friends, and enjoy some music with us!

If you have any questions, please feel free to text or call Josiah Pye at (850-264-7145).

Emmaus Reboot

I went on North Georgia Walk to Emmaus #27 when it was relatively new—32 years
ago! I moved around a lot and had some life changes within a few months of that retreat that caused me to lose touch with my reunion group in seminary. Like many retreat programs, the enthusiasm and energy from a religious experience wanes over time. It’s not unusual!

Many of us at Madison First UMC went on a Walk to Emmaus retreat in the past and it was meaningful. Now, perhaps, we feel a little disconnected from the energy and connection we once had. I’d like those of you who attended a Walk in the past to gather us together for a short meeting to gauge our interest and energy in “rebooting” this ministry. Join your fellow pilgrims for an Emmaus Walk Group Reboot discussion. Let’s meet in the Asbury sanctuary at 4:00pm on April 28th to reconnect and think about our future.

Peace,
Rev. Zack

Staff Parish Relations Committee News

Dear Church friends, today we announce that Kathleen Bryant, is stepping back from her position as our beloved Choir Director effective March 31st (Easter Sunday). Kathleen served our church for over 7 years and has been a blessing to our traditional music program. Kathleen plans on continuing to participate in the life of the church as she is a Church Member first, and employee second. You may see her working with the children or singing in the choir in a few weeks. Please reach out to her and thank her for her many years of service to Madison First UMC. Your Staff Parish Relations Committee is working on finding her replacement as well as a new organist for the 11:00am service. Please be in prayer for the right people for these positions.
