FISH-EYES ON STAGE AT THE HOPE CENTER – FEBRUARY 14TH
Marysville FUMC’s mobile drama ministry Stage Righteous is partnering with The Hope Center on a Valentine’s Day dinner theatre event. The team will stage a performance of Fish-Eyes at the Friday, February 14 event, which is The Hope Center’s primary early-season fundraiser. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Learn more and register for the event by visiting The Hope Center’s Facebook page or its website: www.hopecenterohio.org. First performed locally at FUMC in 2007, Fish-Eyes is a heartwarming and humorous journey through the Gospel story with the disciple brothers Peter and Andrew. It portrays the surprises and joy, but also the confusion, questions and ultimately, the love and freedom these two fishermen must have experienced in their walk with Jesus.

Church family, recently we installed key card access locks to the church and we want to give everyone a notice that starting Monday, July 15th during the hours of 9am-2pm Monday through Friday the church office doors at the Court Street entrance will be the only entry point into the church, all other doors will be locked. After 2pm, the Burnside Entrance door will unlock so the congregation has access to the church for meetings after church office hours. This change will control the flow of people coming into the church during church office hours, so the office staff is aware of individuals in the building and can provide assistance if someone is lost or needs help.
