Church News: Sunday Morning Adult Group


Great discussions about heaven followed our reading the adult written copy of HEAVEN IS FOR REAL. Recall it’s about a boy’s trip to heaven and back. This prompted further study of heaven and we started on March 25th the book SURPRISED BY HOPE, Rethinking Heaven, the Resurrection, and the Mission of the Church by N.T. Wright. We study on Sunday mornings in the parlor at 9:15 a.m. with the use of a DVD and study guide loaned to us through the East Ohio Conference UMC Media Center. We have copies of the book available.


Shawna Melnykowski invited anyone to join the youth study group on the weeks they would be viewing/discussing the video SOUL SURFER, about a teenage surfer girl who summons the courage to go back into the ocean after losing an arm in a shark attack. Our study group joined them for three weeks and were glad to hear from, share faith and be enriched by the youth of IUMC. Thank you, Shawna!
