| God is at work in the New Horizon United Methodist Church! This congregation of just over 100 members is a wonderfully healthy, energized, and Spirit-filled congregation. The sign out front says, “We have a place for you,” and we strive to live out that motto every week by making everyone feel welcome and by providing opportunities for all ages to grow in faith. In fact, the people of this church are undoubtedly our greatest asset. They live out a contagious faith and genuine care for one another. Nearly every week we welcome several visitors in our worship services, and in 2006 we welcomed 14 new members into our congregation. Even first-time visitors often remark that this church “feels like home” from the moment you walk in the door. We have made an effort to be kid-friendly by providing some fun outreach events like our Back to School Carnival last August, our Pumpkin Party last October, and our free family movie nights every month. We have some outstanding youth among us, including four who participated in World Vision’s 30-Hour Famine in February 2006 to raise awareness and money for hunger relief around the world—an event in which we raised $1400. Perhaps the most unique trait of this church, though, is that we seem to have all the charm and genuine depth of relationships you can find in any traditional little country church, but we also have a fun, contemporary flavor about us, a beautiful new building, and lots of great programs and events for a church our size. Most of all, the element that makes this place so wonderful is God’s presence among us. God is working powerfully through all the individuals in this church to accomplish far more than any of us could do with our own wisdom and strength. It is truly exciting to be a part of what God is doing here! |
