SUMMARY:The Christ Child\, A devotion by Pastor Richard
DESCRIPTION:The Christ Child\nA devotion by Pastor Richard\nThis year\, for some reason\, has been much\, much busier than usual for me personally. Normally I look forward to December and my work with youth and children slowing down a little. We try to do our parties and Christmas celebrations earlier in the month because of all the family things and travel starts to occur mid-month. Of course\, other areas of the church have more than usual going on with extra services to plan and organize. This year has been different. Maybe it was my nephew’s wedding last week. Maybe it was my family deciding they could come see us and spend Christmas with us after all. It might have been deciding to preach on the day after Christmas when the opportunity arose! It just feels like a lot. I am not going to mention all the different areas of stress\, conflict\, and the attempt to deal graciously with all those involved! \nIt is so easy to get caught up in all the distractions and miss the lessons God teaches us in the birth story of His own Son. I bet I have either read or heard the birth story at least twenty times this December\, and we are still not even to Christmas Eve! I have yet to take the time and process what it means for me\, this year\, in this context. I have not begun to think of how this precious babe should be directing my path for 2022\, which is lining up to be another challenging year. In my heart I feel that God is up to something and will be moving in new and fresh ways in our country\, but my fear is that we are going to miss our opportunity to be a part of it simply because we do not stop and pause at the manger. We are too busy with everything else to take the time to peer at the baby in the stable and see the face of God. \nSo\, my question for all of us\, with myself being at the top of the list\, what is God teaching us from the manger this year? What lessons of His unfathomable love is He trying to teach me this season? It is so easy to walk on by and continue with my life\, and do the things I want\, without pausing to really notice God coming into our world\, just so that we all might find a better way of living and relating to both our Creator and with one another. Let me encourage you to do some deeper self-reflection and God-reflection this year. Do not take that next step into 2022 without having spent time with Jesus and His family in that old stable in Bethlehem. Discover how God wants to change you and use you for His purposes in the coming year. \nMerry Christmas!!! \nPastor Richard

SUMMARY:Joy\, Devotion by Pastor Richard
DESCRIPTION:What brings you great joy? Stop and think for a minute\, do not just take the first answer that pops into your head. Think about what really brings you the greatest joy? Is it an action that you do for someone? Is it an action someone does for you? Is it something you witness from time to time out in the world? Is it something material like a car\, house\, or some object? Maybe your great joy resides in a memory of someone no longer alive. I just want you to seriously think about what brings you the greatest joy. A lot of things make me happy\, but only a few bring me “great joy.” My “great joy” is most likely different from your great joy. \nNow think about the shepherd story in Luke 2\, and notice verse 10: “ but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.” (NLT). The angels are telling those poor\, smelly and afraid shepherds that God is in the process of doing something incredible! Someone is coming\, someone that will bring us all\, not just joy\, but great joy! And not just to those shepherds but a joy for the whole world forever! \nDuring this Advent and Christmas seasons\, life gets tougher for some reason. We all pile on tons of other things and events on top of our regular responsibilities. We also sometimes dwell on those that are no longer with us or cannot be with us during these times of special gatherings. There are even those out there that suffer from loneliness and depression more at this time of year than the rest of the year. They witness families getting together and they have no family. It can be an incredibly tough time of year for so many. So where can we find that great joy that Luke talks about? \nLet us rediscover that joy by heading back to the manger scene two thousand years ago. Let us join that walk with the shepherds to discover God’s precious gift of joy. Maybe we need to run to Bethlehem as I imagine some of the shepherds are doing! I cannot see them taking their time getting to the manger\, after all they were serenaded by God’s heavenly host\, and told by God to go and see the miracle that is the baby Jesus! That gift is the gift that changes the direction of humanity. It is a gift of a love we cannot even begin to imagine in the midst of our brokenness. It is a gift that if we let it\, can bring us the greatest joy that will change our very nature and lead us down paths God truly intended for us to travel in this life. It is a gift that allows us to move even through our own pain\, loss\, and distractions to a point of great joy and celebration. \nGo! Take a peek into that manger and see the greatest source of joy for the whole world\, for all time! \nMuch Joy! \nPastor Richard

SUMMARY:O Come Let Us Adore Him - Advent Prayer Walk

There will be 14 stations set up as a guided meditation helping us to reflect on the miracle of Christ’s birth. \nStarting Dec. 1st through Wednesday\, Dec. 12th\, the sanctuary will be open at the following times \n·       Sundays\, Dec. 1st and 8th\, 4:00 – 8:00 p.m. \n·       Weekdays from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm \nExcept Wednesday hours 11:30 a.m – 1:00 p.m and 6 – 7 p.m.  \nYou can enter through the main doors facing the parking lot and you will find instructions on the table outside of the sanctuary that will help you get started.

SUMMARY:HomeComing and Habitat for Humanity 2021
DESCRIPTION:Homecoming – What a joy to gather\, sing our favorite songs of faith and enjoy a delicious Spaghetti Lunch. How wonderful it was to have Rhonda Hill helping to lead the singing\, Rhonda is a charter member and has been sharing her love of music from the very beginning. Thank you Rhonda for sharing your gift of music. \nLooking at the table with the pink table cloth\, is the family of Jim & Jo Green. Jim and Jo are charter members at HUMC and they had their daughters with them who grew up at HUMC. As they took them on a tour of the new build it was fascinating to hear their stories of coming to Sunday school and who their teachers were\, where and what the first Sanctuary looked like. This is truly what homecoming is about sharing our heritage with the young\, and reminiscing with those of us who’ve been around awhile. \nOn each table was a bag with building material to challenge each table to build a house\, this was fun and you can see we’re a very creative bunch\, mostly thanks to the young people. \nWe are close to reaching our annual goal for Habitat for Humanity of $2\,000\, so if you’ve not had a chance to make a donation use the button below to give online (fund: Habitat) or mail your contribution to the church (P.O. Box 970\, Harrisburg\, NC 28075). \nSpecial thanks to John Lomonaco and the kitchen crew for all their work in making lunch yummy and safe. As you can see from the pictures the spaghetti looks delicious but tasted even better. Dining was inside the fellowship and in the court yard outside the fellowship hall. The court yard was a great surprise benefit of the new build\, we look forward to using this new space for more events. \nLinkhttps://onrealm.org/harrisburgumc/-/form/give/now

SUMMARY:Ash Wednesday
DESCRIPTION:Ash Wednesday\, February 17\, 2021\nThis year Ash Wednesday will look a little different than normal. We are preparing a worship service that will be made available on Facebook and YouTube by 6am on Ash Wednesday morning. We invite you to carve out 30 minutes in your day\, anytime that works best for you alone or you with your family\, to worship as you begin the Lenten Season. \nIn lieu of finding a way to get ashes to everyone\, we are going back to the very beginning and remembering that that call of Ash Wednesday is to remember that you are mortal\, created by God from the dirt of the earth and to dirt we will all return one day. We are creatures\, not God\, and as such we are prone to sin and frailty. This year we remember by inviting you to bring some dirt from around your own home into your worship on Ash Wednesday to mark yourself with the sign of the cross and remember. \nJoin us as we seek to begin a holy Lent rending our hearts and remembering the covenant God has made with us.
