Adult Sunday School begins this Sunday!

9:30 am, Chapel

Welcome to Thrive, a six-week study in the Book of James. Thrive describes something alive, vibrant, and moving in the right direction. It means to prosper or flourish. Whether that describes life for you in this season or sounds like wishful thinking because life is hard and you’re struggling to get through each day, this study is for you.   

We will be studying six key themes or habits:

1.  Endurance

2.  Wisdom

3.  Action

4.  Control

5.  Humility

6.  Prayer


Primary Bible verses for this lesson:  James 1: 1-4

Come join us in person or via zoom at

Technology Trainees Needed

Do you know how to push a button?  The booth crew is looking for some backup!  We would like to invite people to train with us to learn how to run the audio-visual booth.  Training will consist of a brief session to familiarize you with the equipment and procedures, and plenty of opportunities to stand with us in the booth during services to learn hands-on.  Contact John or Phil Wolter or email webmaster@noumc.org.
