Wisdom. We desperately need it in 2020, yet it drips forth from Genesis to Revelation. Join us as we resume our study of Wisdom literature starting Tuesday August 4th at 1:30pm. We will recap where we have been in the first gathering and then move on to Song of Songs. We will be having a hybrid session of in-person and Zoom to accommodate whatever situation you find yourself. Please email Pastor Joseph (joseph@richmondcumc.com) if you are interested in joining.

Prayer Service on Sundays at 6:30pm.
You, me, and God – bringing our hearts before our maker together at 1425 E Main in the Sanctuary for a half hour each week. In the midst of the uncertainty of 2020, we will be leaning into the knowledge of our God, and discerning where the Holy Spirit is leading Central in the days to come.
Prayer Walk Monday at Noon
Prayer connects us daily to a loving God moving in our midst. In his 3 rules for Methodists, John Wesley calls us to both private and public prayer. On the first Monday of every month at noon, we will have a prayer walk through our neighborhood. We will divide into small groups at the entrance of the church and proceed in different directions. Along the way, we will pause to pick up trash and renew our streets and sidewalks. Please contact Pastor Joseph with any questions. For those who cannot participate in this way, contact pastor Jen for alternative options.
Stuff the Bus
At the Annual Conference of the Indiana United Methodist Church each year a mission project is presented for all the Indiana churches to participate in. Last year we donated lap blankets to Brianna’s Hope and the previous year it was backpacks packed with personal health care products for the homeless.
This year our project is Stuff the Bus which follows the theme of this years conference “Children Matter Most”. However, due to COVID-19 and to avoid physically handling school supplies donations will be accepted and donated to the 10 Districts of the Indiana Conference.
To donate:
- Text the word “missional” to give to Children Matter Most, and the amount of your donation to 855-389-1555.
- Give online through Securegive at https://app.securegive.com/INUMC/-missional-offering.
- If you prefer to get a check to me, I will see that the conference gets it.
Thank you for participating in the Annual Conference mission project.
