Riding the Whirlwind - From Pastor Derek

Riding the Whirlwind Greetings, sisters and brothers in Christ here at Southport UMC! Whew, I’m just catching my breath here.   The world has changed in the past couple of months and I’m barely keeping up.   Our move to the south side has not been without incident or     struggle, but thanks to a variety of helpers that I don’t risk naming (mostly for fear of missing someone) we are here, we are home, we are settling.   “Settling,” notice, it’s a process.   Just like most of life.   My biggest joy has been spending time with your wonderful staff.   As Lead Pastor I guess I could call them my staff.   But really they work for and represent you.   And you are indeed blessed.   They are a committed, creative, hardworking, and simply enjoyable team of servants.   I am honored to work with them.   They have been extraordinarily patient with me on my steep learning curve, and I am grateful for that.

CALLING ALL MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS!

This coming school year, we are going to do something very exciting and also very important for the students and their discipleship of Jesus. It is important for the students to build their faith on a firm foundation, on “solid rock” as Jesus says in Matthew 7:24-27.   We are going to spend the next several months using material taught in a typical confirmation class to build that solid foundation.   This is not the typical United Methodist Church confirmation class that ends in the students becoming members of the church.   (That will come later – in the spring.)   So, while some middle school and high school students may have already become members of the church by professing their faith, what we are doing in the coming months is still incredibly crucial in faith formation for all students. We will kick-off this exciting time on Sunday, September 10.   All middle and high school students will attend worship that morning at 10:00 a.m.   There ...
