Paxton United Methodist Church exists to know, grow, and share God’s Love.
We welcome anyone in need of a local church home to come and join us in worship and service.
Join us for worship on Sundays at 9:15 am!
Advent is a time of Preparation
Renew your spirit and prepare your heart for Jesus!

* Ringing the bell for the Salvation Army this year on one of three
Saturdays at Sam’s Club: 12/7, 12/14, and 12/21. Contact Kirby to sign up!
* Thank you to everyone who helped to decorate the church for
the season.
* Thank you to all those who took a tag from the Angel Tree and
shopped for children in the community we may not know, but
love all the same!
Advent Book Study for Adults
Sundays after worship
Our Advent Bible Study is using Max Lucado’s Because of Bethlehem. Grab a cup of coffee and a snack and join us!
Cookie Sharing Time!
December 21 after worship
We will have a cookie tasting and recipe sharing time on Dec. 21. If you are able, bring 2 dozen of your favorite cookie and the recipe to share. (If your favorite cookie happens to be from a bakery, that works, too! Just let us know where we can buy them.) Didn’t bring cookies? – No problem! Come enjoy cookies anyway, along with hot chocolate and fellowship.

More Opportunities to Give and to Serve:
* On the first Sunday of each month we have communion. On those Sundays, consider bringing non-perishable items to share with Manna Food Pantry. There is a bin for donations in the narthex.
* Pastor Gary would love to have special music, on Christmas Eve and all through the year. If you have vocal of instrumental skills, please share them with the church!
* Check out the details of the PUMC Transportation Ministry ~ for Rides to Worship ~ and the PUMC Medical Equipment Sharing Ministry. Whether you are in need of one of these services, or can provide assistance, you will find a blessing in participating!
* Do you have a talent or skill you want to use for God, but don’t know where to begin? Talk to Pastor Gary or any member of the Leadership Team today! We want to help you find a way to grow and share God’s Love.

I am no longer my own, but thine.
Put me to what thou wilt, rank me with whom thou wilt.
Put me to doing, put me to suffering.
Let me be employed by thee or laid aside for thee, exalted for thee or brought low for thee.
Let me be full, let me be empty.
Let me have all things, let me have nothing.
I freely and heartily yield all things to thy pleasure and disposal.
And now, O glorious and blessed God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, thou art mine, and I am thine. So be it. And the covenant which I have made on earth, let it be ratified in heaven. Amen.
– The Wesley Covenant Prayer
