Celebrating Palm Sunday!

🌿It's Palm Sunday, a special day of celebration and reflection.

We invite you to join us in gathering for worship today at a local United Methodist church near you.

Whether you're new to the area, seeking a new church home or traveling, you can connect to a local using our Find-A-Church resource tool at: https://www.umc.org/find-a-church

"Remember that you are dust... and to dust you shall return."
These words are often offered during Ash Wednesday worship services.

The words are not meant to sound threatening or foreboding. Instead they remind us that we are not God, but God's good creation. As we receive the ashes on Ash Wednesday, we acknowledge our mortality, our dependence on God and our need for renewal. It is a call to live fully, love boldly and turn our hearts toward God’s grace.

Lent invites us into a season of reflection, repentance and renewal. How is God calling you to grow in grace in this season?
