It is very encouraging when someone stops me and expresses their gratitude for Shalimar UMC. Some examples of their gratitude are...
“I cannot thank your church enough for all the good they have done for Recently,me.”
“Your church helped me when I needed help.”
There are some aspects of our ministry that are very visible on our campus each week. In addition to what is visible on our campus, we are also very impactful in our community beyond what we see.
I received thank you notes on behalf of our church about helping our community. Let me share the words of appreciation for our “Weministry…wantyou to know how much we appreciate your continued support and assistance. Your gift means help in these challenging times for the most vulnerable in our community.” -Catholic Charities

Have you ever wondered how you could have a closer walk with God? A more vibrant and intimate relationship with Him? Kelly Minter has a new 7-session Bible study, “Encoun tering God”, which will help us unpack and develop the sacred habits essential to a more vibrant spiritual life and enable us to know God more intimately. This is not about adding more to your to-do list; it is about providing peace and rest as you walk closer to Jesus. This is a wonderful opportunity to grow in your knowledge and love of God and to fellowship with other Christian women.
Fahle for a 7 weeks look at prayer. The who, what, when, where, and HOW to pray class that will help us to appreciate prayer even more.
