Riverview UMC
Sanctuary Dedication and Celebration!
Sunday May 6th
New Spaces to New Places Campaign
Riverview UMC has reached it’s goal for the New Spaces to New Places campaign. Praise be to God! A big thanks to all who supported the campaign through their gifts! We will celebrate and dedicate the sanctuary Sunday, May 6th. The dedication will take place during the worship service and then we will celebrate during the First Sunday Lunch!
You might be asking "Why hasn’t the sanctuary been dedicated yet, we’ve worshipped there for eight years now?"
The Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church says in Paragraph 2545: On acquisition or completion of any church building, a service of consecration may be held. Before any church building is formally dedicated, all indebted-ness against the same shall be dis-charged."
The indebtedness ended at the end of March when we paid off the mortgage! Time to celebrate! Glory and praise be to God!
