2023 CONFIRMANDS
from 2023-03-12 Beacon
by ShalimarUMC
This Sunday, March 12 during the Freedom Service (11:07 in the FLC) these students will be taking the next step in their faith by being confirmed.
They’ve been taking Confirmation classes every Sunday during Sunday School to learn what it means to be a Christian, church member, and everything that comes with it. Help us congradulate them this Sunday!

Hello Shalimar UMC, I’m Pete Peters, Chair of the Mission, and Outreach committee. This Sunday is a special day for Shalimar. We will have a Mission’s Sunday, where we will highlight some of our major Outreach programs and Mission opportunities. There will be tables set up in the FLC with people to help answer questions in between the services.
At 5:00, we will have a FREE meal followed by a presentation from our most recent Mission team that went to serve others in Cuba last month. Being involved in a mission trip has proven to benefit you more than the folks you are going to help! And a special plus is that people who go on mission trips return to their home church and serve in more outreach programs. That was certainly true for me, my first mission trip was in 2005 and I have been on 15 mission trips since then. Helping others in the world and not only helping others in the world but also being more active at home. So, the life you impact on a mission trip might be your own!
Hope to see you Sunday night!
PS: Mission Committee meets every 3rd Tuesday of the month at 6:00 in Cross Corner. If you have an idea for a new Outreach or Mission opportunity, or you want to learn more about what we do, please come, all are welcome!
Blessings,
Pete Peters Chair, Missions and Outreach Committee
