Dreamers and Rest
Confirm your email!

Rest is a challenge for people in our modern culture, especially for those of us who dream. We often think that working ourselves to death for our dream or for those around us will earn us a medal we can show to everyone. We even go so far as to make sure we are telling everyone how much we are working and how hard the work is! Truthfully, I fall into this category a lot. I struggle with the idea of rest because if I am not working to accomplish some goal or task am I really efficient or relevant? Katie has had to work hard to teach me this lesson, I'm no good to anyone if I do not rest, it must be a priority. Over the next 8 weeks we are going to hear from multiple pastors about Biblical characters who dreamed big and why you should too. I planned it, I'm leading it, and I'm excited about it. But I also want you to keep in mind this idea of rest. Because if you chase dreams and work hard but forget to rest so that you can enjoy the fruits of your labor then I feel we may have missed the point. Remember this, We love You, Dream Big, but rest as often as you can. God has big plans for you; we don't want you to be too tired to enjoy it! We Love YOU! Keep The Faith, Tommy
3 Takeaways from Last Sunday's Message
1. God Prepared the Path of Righteousness for you through Jesus
2. God's idea of all things is "all things" in Christ, not our own desires.
3. Nothing can get in the way of our desire for Him.

Things to Remember
1. Two Services! We will offer two services at 8:30am and 10:30am. While you may attend whichever service works best for your schedule, our encouragement is for the more vulnerable to attend the early service (before other people have been onsite).
2. Lovingly Keep Your Distance! We will have pews blocked off to provide for proper social distancing and will encourage six feet of distance between individuals/families on each pew. Also let’s be practicing our air hugs and air high fives, so that we can still show love to each other without spreading germs!
3. Go this Way! Everyone will enter through the side breezeway entrances on both the north and the south side of the Sanctuary, and we will ask everyone to have a brief temperature check with a touchless thermometer. We will hold the door open for you! Everyone will exit via the Narthex.
4. Mask Up! We are asking everyone to wear masks, and we will have some available if anyone forgets theirs or does not have one.
5. Clean Up! We will have volunteers ready to clean between services, so that the pew surfaces, bathrooms and entrances are all sanitized and ready for the next crowd. We also have eliminated common items such as hymnals, Bibles, blankets, etc and we will have offering plates setup in the back rather than passing them.
6. Log on! Don’t feel comfortable returning quite yet . No problem! We will continue to broadcast our 10:30am Service each week on Facebook Live! Simply go to https://www.facebook.com/CentervilleUMCGA/live/ at 10:30 and worship from the convenience of your home or vacation spot..

Sunday School Programs
Issues & Answers
Take a summertime excursion with the Issues & Answers class, meeting Sundays June 23rd-July 21st at 9:30, in their introduction to the Wesleyan Class Meeting format led by our Associate Pastor Kevin & Laurie Clotfelter. This is an opportunity to form small fellowships called Life Groups within our church vision to “connect” with each other. The Life Group concept is based upon the meeting format utilized early in the church renewal movement we now know as Methodism. Contact Don Hall or Kevin if you have interest or questions.
We meet on second room on the left as you enter Church's Administrative Wing
New Beginnings
We know better. We should be able to do the right thing. But often, we go against our better judgment and give in. The Corinthian Christians were no different. They had listened to one false teaching after another—and they had believed what they heard. How many lies had they accepted? How many mistakes had they made? Their list of sins is long and ugly, much like ours. But Paul had patience with the Corinthians. He was disturbed but not despondent; angry but not desperate. His driving passion for them was love, and he saw hope for them. His letter confronts them and shows them how to lead a pure life. His letter to the Corinthians encourages all of us who need a spiritual check-up.The Life Lessons with Max Lucado series brings the Bible to life in twelve lessons filled with intriguing questions, inspirational stories, and poignant reflections to take you deeper into God’s Word.
We meet in the first classroom on the left when you enter the Church's Administrative Wing.
Pilgrim Class
The Pilgrim Class continues the Wondering through the Bible. This is an in depth study done with humor and light refreshments. We have breakfast every 5th Sunday. Everyone is welcome and there is no age requirement.
We meet down the hall from Fellowship Hall.
Seekers
"The Real Heaven--What the Bible Actually Says... What comes to your mind when you think about Heaven? Clouds? Harps? Angels? Singing? Now, honestly, does that really sound like a great way to spend eternity? The good news is, that is NOT what Heaven is like. And when you discover what really awaits you there, it will radically change your view of your future and of Heaven. In this 3 part series from Living on the Edge, Chip Ingram digs into Scripture to reveal what our heavenly home will be like, what we'll do there, what we'll experience and how we're to prepare for eternity today. Join the Seekers SS Class as we discover the amazing truth of what awaits us all in Heaven"
We meet in the classroom closest to Fellowship Hall
Christian Heritage/Wesley Fellowship
Don Schall and Luis Morales co-teach this class, which alternates studying and discussing writings from contemporary authors such as Adam Hamilton, Max Lucado, Robert Jeffers, David Jeremiah, and UMC Adult Bible Studies.
Do you want to discover the answer to life's most fundamental question: What on earth am I here for? Join us as we embark on a journey to find out, using Rick Warren’s The Purpose Driven Life. This study will help us understand why we are alive in God’s amazing plan for each one of us—both here and now, and for eternity. Knowing God’s purpose for creating us help reduce stress, focus energy, simplify decisions, give meaning to life, and most importantly, prepares us for eternity...books available.
Joins in the Old Narthex from 9:15-10:15am; conveniently set between the two services and just down the hall from the sanctuary. You will be glad you did.

2019 Charge Conference Report
This past fall our Church Council approved our 2019 Charge Conference reports, which celebrate the ministry that took place in the past year as well as set our goals and plans for the upcoming year. The attached document includes a synopsis of those reports, which we approved at the time. We made an oversight after the approving Church Council meeting and failed to send out the full report, so we are sending it out now for anyone that is interested in reviewing it.
