Sunday Worship

Worship with us this Sunday, as we continue to learn more about the prophecies of Isaiah and those of Jesus. Both tell of the joy to be anticipated for those who follow God’s will. Come catch the joy of the season. This week’s (12/21) message on “The Peace of Knowing”. Sermon Scripture to be covered will be Isaiah 7:10-16 and Matthew 1:18-25. Adult Sunday School starts at 9:45 a.m., with an historical and spiritual analysis of the sermon’s scripture. Church Greetings start at 10:35 a.m. and Worship Service at 10:45 a.m. For more information, contact Pastor Laura Marine at pastorlauraherbstumc@gmail.com or text her at (321) 517-6878. Herbst UMC, 2561 S 600 W, Marion, IN 46953.

Sunday Activities

Looking for some spiritual growth combined with an insight into Sunday’s scripture?  We all know how difficult the Bible can be to read.  Well, if your interest is piqued, pop by at 9:45 a.m. on Sundays and see what others and scholars are saying. We read the scripture, then review each of these items: 1) Overview; 2) Biblical Context; 3) Historical/Non-Biblical/Political Context; 4) Historical Timeline / Biblical Time Frame; 5) Scholarly Interpretation and Modern Day Context; and 6) How Should We Act/React to this Scripture Today. There are also some delicious Addendums that seem to surface each week. Past lessons are available in our Downloads section.

10:35 a.m. – Meet and Greet in the Sanctuary.

10:45 a.m. – Worship begins.

We have Open Communion on the first Sunday of every month. All are welcome to partake.

Our location: Herbst UMC, 2561 S 600 W, Marion, IN 46953.
