Welcome Rev. Andrew Burns

Pastor Andy is new here. We want to get to know him, he wants to get to know us, and we all want to connect with each other. We are holding a series of Meet-the-Pastor gatherings throughout the fall. We would love to see each of you at one of these events. Each gathering will be limited to 10 people, so you will need to claim a spot. SIgn-up sheets for the first three dates are outside the sanctuary with the date, time, and location. If those dates do not work for your calendar, there will be more in the future. Contact the church office if you have questions or more information. 


Weekly Sunday School and Music Rehearsals

  • On Sunday, August 30, we will be restarting the teen/high school Sunday School class. This will be for youth 4th - 12th grade. They will meet in the Youth Group room from 9 - 9:45 am with breakfast provided. Plan now to be part of the Teen Scene!
  • Starting Thursday, Sept. 3, the weekly music rehearsals will begin. Handbell rehearsals are weekly from 6-7 pm and Chancel Choir rehearsals are weekly from 7-8 pm. All are welcome!
  • On Sunday, Sept. 13, the Adult Sunday School class will begin meeting at 9:00 am. The class this year will be led by Connie Fleming as we delve into the scriptures for each Sunday. See you in room 205.


Harvest & Herb Festival - Sept. 19

We will have a float in the Harvest and Herb Festival Parade on Sept. 19. We need donations of candy to throw and bottled water to hand out. If you would like to donate any of these items, please bring them to the church office. If you can ride or walk in the parade, please contact Thomas or Amy Dennis, or let the church office at info@adaumc.org

The United Women in Faith will host a luncheon at the church from 11 am to 1:30 pm. Stop in the Fellowship Hall and enjoy the cool room, great food, and a place to greet your friends.

The United Women in Faith also have created a Beautiful Quilt for raffle on Sept. 19. Tickets are $2.00 for one or three for $5.00. See Cathy Smalley or Connie Fleming for ticketes! The winner of the quilt will be drawn after the luncheon. 


Youth Activity Calendar

Many individuals in the congregation would love to come and support our youth in their activities. We are putting together a digital calendar and a physical hallway calendar in the church so members can look and see what activities are happening. If you would like your child's activities to be posted on this calendar, please send Sam Beck at familyministry@adaumc.org your child's schedule for the sport or activity. We are only putting home events on the calendar at this time. If you have a picture of your child in their activity, Sam can post that next to the church hallway calendar as well.
