A Season to Celebrate
The life of Christ from the manger to resurrection and Pentecost will be presented in a cantata by the choir of the First United Methodist Church (FUMC) in Taylor on Sunday, Sept. 10.
“A Season To Celebrate,” by Allen Pote will be performed at the 10:30 a.m. service. The choir is under the leadership of the church’s music director and organist Debbby Vester.
“This musicale is beautiful and fun,” Vester said. “We invite the public to join with us for this event.”
The approximately half-hour cantata will feature choral numbers and solos. There will also be a repeat appearance by The Three Wise Men, weary travelers who are bickering their way by camel to Bethlehem.
Portions of the cantata have been presented by the choir during various of the church seasons. This will be the first time they have performed the entire program at one time.
The First United Methodist Church is located at 907 West Lake Drive in Taylor. The Rev. Sela Finau is the church’s pastor.
Responding to Hurricane Harvey
Hurricane Harvey Help
Many of you have asked how you can help.
First and foremost, please pray for all those impacted by the storm.
As announced on Sunday, UMCOR – United Methodist Committee on Relief is the official agency of The United Methodist Church that responds to disasters. UMCOR works with other agencies to determine the location of the most needs. While I am aware there are various avenues through other organizations and groups who are all trying to provide support to the people in the affected areas, we will utilize our methodist connection. This Sunday, September 3, we will take up a special collection for UMCOR to be given to the Harvey Relief and Recovery effort.
UMCOR website here and you can credit our local church by selecting it. 100% of your donation will go to the relief effort.
We will also assemble flood buckets. You can find the supply list here
