MUCC Takes A Turn at the Shared Table this week

9/29/2014

 
If you’re free on Thursday evening, we invite you to help out as McFarland United Church of Christ takes a turn sponsoring the Shared Table Community Meal.   The meal is served each week in the McFarland Lutheran Church’s gymnasium.  Doors open at 5 p.m. and food is served from 5:15 to 6:15.  

This is an easy way to jump in and try your hand at mission.  It’s a one time commitment for just a few hours, and older children and youth are welcome to participate with adults.    

 “It takes a lot of people working together,” says Lavon Geasland, a regular coordinator of MUCC’s involvement.  “About 30 people help supply the food and clean up afterwards.”

Lavon said volunteers find the experience of preparing the meal rewarding.

Making A Mess at the McFarland Family Festival

9/8/2014

The warmth of summer will soon make way for the cool of autumn -- and the season for Sundaes on Thursdays might be past -- but that won't stop us from making our presence known and engaging with the community.  On Sept. 19-21, MUCC will be participating in the McFarland Family Festival. Once again, we'll offer our popular (but messy) fingerpainting table under the Big Top. 

Our table will be open Friday evening, all day on Saturday, and Sunday after the parade. Look for the big tent in the McFarland High School parking lot.

New Worshiper Profiles

9/8/2014

 
A Church with Heart + meaningful ministry + warm hospitality (+ lots of publicity) = many new faces among our worshiping community.  Over the next few months, while we gather a More Than Membership group in preparation for a Covenant Sunday, we'll be bringing you mini-profiles so we can get to know one another.  For this issue of our e-newsletter, Tracy Weber, and Jeff & Susan Trentadue sat down for a chat:

Big Changes to Worship and Faith Development

9/8/2014

 
It used to be children at the McFarland United Church of Christ left worship after only 15 minutes.  In recent years, they would depart for Sunday School after children’s time.   Not anymore. 

This fall, children will join adult worshippers for the entire service and Sunday school sessions will be put on hold.  Understanding that we learn through hearing and doing, the church has established an activity zone in the sanctuary for those who need to keep their hands busy as they listen and learn. 

Wendy Abel, moderator of the congregation, said the concept promotes the importance of cross+generational relationships.

Easy ministry signups & reminders with Signup Genius

9/6/2014

 
Sign Up Now!
We want to make it easy for you to get involved in your church's mission and ministry!  McFarland UCC has chosen to begin using SignUpGenius to manage ongoing and one-time ministry opportunities.  

If you always mean to sign up for an activity, but forget to check our Mission & Service bulletin board before leaving the building, you can now handle it from home.   Using this tool, you'll receive an automatic reminder a few days before the activity takes place. You can also swap timeslots with others so our master list is accurate. SignUp Genius is safe, secure, and your email address will NOT be sold.  

If you prefer to sign up on paper, you can still stop by the Mission & Service bulletin board when you're in the church building.  Opportunities are also posted there on a regular basis.  If SignUp Genius is an option for you, though, we encourage you to check it out.

Currently listed on our SignUpGenius page:  
Sunday Morning Ministries, Messy Church Team, and McFarland Family Festival volunteers.
