Worship Resource Donation
Help us update the worship resources in our sanctuary as bibles and hymnals return to the pews.
Each $35 donation provides a bundle of the following:
Many of our pew bibles are not in good shape. They all are outdated translations and use words no longer part of our vocabulary, making it difficult for new church goers to interact fully with the scriptures. These hardbound volumes are sturdy official United Methodist resources and match the translation used on our screens and in our digital bulletins.
There have been two additions published to The United Methodist Hymnal since 1989, the last time hymns 1-1,000 were updated. The Faith We Sing was published twenty years ago and begins with hymn 2001. We frequently sing out of this book, but we do not have printed editions of them in the sanctuary.
The second addition to The United Methodist Hymnal, published ten years ago, is Worship & Song. It begins with hymn 3001. We use hymns from this book in our worship services, but we do not have printed editions of them in the sanctuary.
These worship resources can be given in honor or in memory of someone special in your life or in the life of the church. Simply note the dedication below when making your donation.
If this box is not checked, then the name of the donor will be included on the bookplate in each resource. Anonymous donations can still be dedicated to others.
If no dedication is given, resources will be given "in honor of the people of First United Methodist Church".
