Ada First has been discussing changing its committee structure to a Lead Team. A "Lead Team" in The United Methodist Church refers to a governing board, which consolidates the functions of traditional committees like the Church Council, Staff-Parish Relations Committee (SPRC), Trustees, and Finance Committee into a single, smaller leadership body to improve efficiency and missional focus. Led by the pastor, the Lead Team's primary role is to align the church's actions with its mission and vision by delegating operational tasks to various ministry teams, creating a more agile and missional church structure. There will be a charge conference vote on this proposed change in governance structure on Oct. 5 at 4 pm.

Join us on Thursday, October 30, 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. as the church hosts trick or treat in the parking lot. Over 500 Ada children will stop by to see our decorated cars and receive a piece of candy. RSVP your parking spot by contacting the church office or Sam Beck, decorate your trunk, and come out for an evening of fun. If you are able, the office is accepting candy donations now!

The Busy Bee Preschool that meets in the church building will have a special Trick or Treat event on Wednesday, Oct. 29 at 10 am. The church will create numerous stops around the building, where the children can stop and get a piece of candy. If you are able to come and help hand out candy at a stop in the building, please let the office know. You are welcome to dress up as well - just nothing too scary please!

We will celebrate All Saints Sunday on November 9, 2025. The "Roll of the Saints" (names of members of the church) and the “Roll of the Beloved," (the names of anyone dear to be remembered - church membership not required) will be read. If you would like to have someone remembered who has died since November 1, 2024, email the church office at info@adaumc.org by November 3. Please include the name and date of death of your beloved with your contact information. God remembers.
