This week’s Order of Worship

It’s our Charge wide Unified Worship and Picnic Sunday! Our host church, Sprucetown UMC, invites all to Robert and Helen Steiger’s grounds behind the Fellowship Bible Church at 642 Lower Georges Valley Road, Spring Mills. Bring a lawn chair for worship at 10:30am that includes a butterfly release. Bring a covered dish to share for the picnic that follows!
