Facets of Faith

FACETS OF FAITH– August through December at Noel UMC Each month we’ll dive deeper into the Wesleyan tenets of presence, service, giving, prayer, and witness. We will highlight ways to live out this faith in the world and in our own lives.  There will be Gallery Wall opportunities, special events, and an opportunity to feed body and spirit through art and dinner in our congregation-wide Art & Appetites every 4th Sunday from 5-7pm. This is for all ages, and childcare will be provided with children participating in art as well. Please take these opportunities to support and grow with your Noel family.
