Community Dinner “Soft Open” is TODAY

The launch of Community Dinner will start with a “soft open” practice run for the congregation, friends, and family. Like many restaurants, the “soft open” will allow us to practice before opening to the public in June. We hope you will join us for our Community Dinner on Sunday, May 19, 5-6:30 pm.

Questions for “Ask the Pastor”

On Sunday, May 26, during the message time of worship, you can ask Pastor Erick anything! The message time will be led by the congregation’s questions on the Bible, faith, United Methodism, or anything else you’d like to know. To give you the best and most up-to-date information, Pastor Erick requests that you begin asking questions with index cards in the Worship Guide (placed in the offering plate) or using the form found at www.clearviewumc.org/signups. If you wish, you can still ask questions live on May 26.

Virtual Pre-Conference Workshops Open To All

From May 20 through May 24, virtual workshops covering various topics are open to all in the lead-up to the Florida Annual Conference meeting. Review the list and sign up at www.clearviewumc.org/signups..

Children’s Bible Sunday

On Sunday, June 2, we will celebrate Children’s Bible Sunday. During worship, all of our children, infants through Grade 5, will receive their Bible. During summer Sunday School, the students will learn how to use their Bibles to learn and grow their faith life. Following worship, we will have a short reception in the Fellowship Hall to honor our children and their families. Parents, please complete the form using Pastor Erick’s email, or it can be found at www.clearviewumc.org/signups.
