Memories, fire of the Spirit, and hope

On Memorial Weekend's Sunday, our two communities, Groveville UMC and Crosswicks UMC, shared together a beautiful and meaningful Joint Memorial & Pentecost Sunday Service. It is difficult to fully describe everything we experienced together, because every part of the morning carried its own spirit of reverence, honor, beauty, and hope.

A Holy Week to remember

This past week, our communities at Crosswicks and Groveville walked together through a Holy Week that was spiritually meaningful and full of deep moments. I feel grateful. Not only for what we did, but for what we experienced together.

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.

We give thanks for Rev. Racquel Santiago from Grace AME Church in Crosswicks, who delivered the Word of God in our service this past Sunday. She brought a powerful and inspiring message that spoke deeply to our hearts and challenged us to live our faith with courage and conviction.

Coffee? with David? What?

One of the things that excites me most in ministry is creating spaces for conversation. Sometimes Sunday mornings go by too quickly and there is not enough time to talk, to ask questions, or to reflect together. That is why I am starting something very special with you, Coffee with David.

A Taste of Love and Fellowship

Sharing food with one another is a sign of friendship, and also a spiritual practice. Around the table we find Jesus, who broke bread with his disciples and welcomed all to join. This is just the beginning of greater unity and connection between our two congregations. United we are stronger. United and connected we are more resilient, and together we can dream even bigger dreams.
