Jim Parsons' Podcast

We continue our worship series "The Table" by looking at the table Christ invites us to sit at. During communion, we are invited to partake in the meal he shared with his disciples. What does it mean to sit at this table and receive the bread and cup? This table invites us to become a community with one another.  Thank you again for worshiping with us.

We start a new worship series today called "The Table." The table is the place to nourish our bodies and also our souls. Think of the people who gather around your tables. Think of all the stories, love, and laughter that your tables have held. Today, we look at who Jesus sits down with at his table. It goes against the religious leaders, but Jesus sees the world differently than we do. What could we learn and how could we grow if our tables looked more like Jesus'? Thank you again for worshipping with us. For more information about our congregation, please visit our website at milfordhillsumc.org.

How does Milford Hills UMC deploy generosity? We do so by being good stewards of what people give to God through the missions and ministry of our church.
