"My House will be called a house of prayer"  - Matthew 21:13

Church leaders and many others have committed to spend daily prayer time for ninety days asking God to guide how Wilmington Island UMC can become a bold House of Prayer.  Three specific prayer requests are to be made daily:

   That people would be led to volunteer to pray during our worship services each Sunday for the worship service and those in attendance.  The purpose would be to cover our worship in Prayer.

   That God would strtengthen the overall prayer life of this church and create an atmosphere of prayer that will be bold as we claim the promises of God.

   That God would show each of us individually what we need to be doing to help improve our own and the church's spiritual maturity.  We will be asking, "Lord what is the next steop for Wilmington Island UMC?  Help us to hear and discern your guidance."

"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of Power, of love, and of self discipline"  - 2 Timothy 1:7 

 

Robert McIntire United Methodist Church will be closed at Annual Conference in June.  They will have a final worship for churches in the Savannah District at 12:00 noon, June 1, 2008.  Some of our members have fond ties to this church.  The closing of a church is always a time for remembrance and a time to honor their rich history.  You are invited to attend this final service on June 1, at Robert McIntire UMC
