Happenings @ the Norfolk Church! Norfolk United Methodist Church
NUMC Verse of the Day Keep reminding them of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:14-15
