A season to make room

On February 18th, we began our Lenten journey together. Early in the morning we offered Ashes to Go at Crosswicks, and later we gathered for our joint Ash Wednesday service at Groveville. It was a beautiful time of reflection, prayer, silence, and repentance.

And yet, Luke does not tell us what happened to the sheep when the shepherds decided to go to Bethlehem. Did they leave them behind? If they did, were they neglecting their responsibilities?

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.
