At
Cumberland United Methodist Church, we really care. We care because God
cares. Life can be complicated and demanding. We can become spiritually
dry and feel like we are running on empty. We need encouragement and a
sense of purpose for living.We need to be accepted for who we are, what
our experiences have been, and what we CAN be.
It
doesn't matter how
you dress, or if you can sing, or how old or young you may be. It
doesn't matter what it is that has gone on in your life. The important
thing is that you come to church. Any church. Maybe our church.
Join us Sunday morning at 9:30 in the
Fellowship
Hall downstairs for fellowship and refreshments followed
by Sunday School at 10 am and Church Service at 11 am.
