Easter 2011 Letter:
Welcome:
The United Methodist Church of Monroe is a place to call home. Having been born in Monroe, and growing up in the area for all but 9 years of my life (ages 3-12 spent in Florida), coming back to this community has truly been a homecoming for me and my family. I think that this has been one of the primary missions of "UMCM," helping everyone to experience that sense of homecoming that is being the body of Christ. Whether you are experienced in the Christian walk, remember it as a distant childhood experience, or question the need for Jesus in your life, you are welcome to this home as we wrestle with what it means to be faithful in an ever changing and challenging world.
Previous Churches I have Served:
Before I came to Monroe, I served communities in Pleasant Valley, CT, and Plainville Connecticut. My first appointment upon graduating from Yale Divinity School was at the the Pleasant Valley United Methodist Church on November 1, 1993.
Some Other Things About Me:
I met my wife when in my last two years of my ministry at Pleasant Valley, and we were married in that church. In Plainville we started our family with the birth of our daughter.
We came to "UMCM" on July 1, 2005. The moment we stepped through the doors of the church we felt the love and grace of this wonderful community surrounding us. One of the wonderful joys I have found in "UMCM" is that we feel that our faith is not just something that comes out on Sunday, but is a vital part of our everyday experience: we a group of sincere Christians who are trying our best to not just vocalise our faith, but meeting the challenge of actually living it out.
