Community Worship Event - June 9th!
June 9th at 9am and 11am
Location: Marysville High School Auditorium
On Pentecost Sunday there will be two community-wide worship services co-hosted by many local churches in Marysville. The message will be given by Jay Pathak the author of the book, “The Art of Neighboring”. Please note that MFUMC will have no on-site worship service that day. We encourage everyone to attend one of the unique community-wide service as we celebrate the fresh movement of the Holy Spirit in the community through The Art of Neighboring study!

Special Charge Conference Update
SPECIAL CHURCH CONFERENCE was held on Thursday May 2 regarding how apportionments to our District and West Ohio Conference will be administered. Listed is the outcome of the conference:
Funds held in Escrow - Money held in escrow for apportionments will remain under the conditions of the December 2017 decision. If there is not a guilty verdict by January 1, 2020, the funds will revert to FUMC to be used as the Leadership Team deems most appropriate.
Current Apportionments - Marysville FUMC will return to paying apportionments effective immediately, contingent upon the church’s financial ability to fund these payments.
Please direct any questions you may have to your Leadership Team.
