New Every Morning | January 2026

New mercies, not just on Christmas, or New Year’s, but each and every morning.  “Happy New Year.“, I whispered to my husband as I quietly crept out of bed  at 7:30. Going to the window and opening the curtains, I was looking forward to peeking outside and greeting this special day.

Lighting the Tree and Sharing the Season in Groveville

This past Saturday, December 6th, Groveville UMC held our traditional Christmas Tree Lighting for our extended community, and it was a very special night. While we gathered outside in the crisp December air, we were reminded that we are called to be light in a world that seems to be covered in shadows.

We celebrated our 103 Thanksgiving Breakfast!

This Thanksgiving morning, our church family gathered once again for one of the most beautiful and enduring traditions of our community: our 103rd Thanksgiving Breakfast. When you stop to think about it, one hundred and three years is more than a number. It is a testimony of faith. It is the story of generations who have woken up early on Thanksgiving morning to cook, to welcome, to pray, and to share a meal that has become part of the very heart of our church.

A pastoral prayer for Thanksgiving

Gracious God, On this day of gratitude, we gather as one people, united across traditions and communities, to lift our hearts in thanksgiving. You are the Giver of every good gift, the One who calls us to remember the blessings we enjoy and also the neighbors who are still waiting for justice, dignity, and daily bread.

From grief to healing: Making room for God’s new

There are many kinds of grief. Sometimes we grieve the absence of those we have loved, but other times the grief happens quietly inside us, in that tender place where our memories, traditions, and expectations live. In the life of a church, this kind of grief also appears when God invites us to let go of what no longer gives life so we can receive the new thing God is preparing.
