Kathleen Stanley has been named the first Executive Director of Roots of Faith! Kathleen brings a wealth of experience, as well as deep, established relationships to her new role. Knowing the community will benefit from her leadership, Faith UMC’s Leadership Board is thrilled to celebrate this milestone and Kathleen’s work among us. Please join us in congratulating her!
Roots of Faith began ten years ago as a ministry of Faith UMC. Through a process of discernment and prayer, and lots of hard work by our staff and volunteers, Roots of Faith is now on track to become its own non-profit corporation within the next few months. As we continue to move through that transition, Faith UMC remains committed to participating alongside Roots of Faith in the life-giving ministry happening. We also look forward to this new day and the blossoming of a dream. God is good!
October Worship Series
Make plans to join us every Sunday in October for our message series, considering how we grow in worship, service, generosity, and community. On October 20th, we’ll celebrate the 30th anniversary of the revitalization and renaming of Faith UMC with churchwide worship at 10:30am at Faith. A potluck dinner will follow. We hope you’ll join us, as we grow together!
