Impressed
Once
Again:
Last
week
I
 made
my
first
visit
to
the
“Sunny
Day
 Club.”
This
exceptional
ministry
helps
 people
who
are
struggling
with
dementia.
It
offers
a
weekly
place
of
 activity,
love
and
dignity
for
people
with
serious
cognitive
 challenges.
It
also
provides
a
much
needed
weekly
respite
for
their
 caregivers.
I
was
deeply
moved
by
the
love
and
care
that
our
 volunteers
offered
the
members
of
the
Sunny
Day
Club.
The
longer
 I’m
here,
the
more
impressed
I
am
by
both
the
breadth
and
depth
of
 the
ministries
at
BUMC.
If
you
would
like
more
information

 The
Sunny
Day
Club
ministry

 Moving
Toward
Normality:
After
several
weeks
of
start‐up
 worship
services,
and
a
look
at
core
congregational
practices
that
 lead
to
vitality
(Five
Practices
of
Fruitful
Congregations),
and
a
 series
on
biblical
finances—I’m
ready
for
some
“normal”
worship
