Welcome to Farmville United Methodist Church!

Check out these news magazines!

There is a richness to our church life that is hard to express in just a few words, so open up these newsletters and see for yourself how much God is moving in our congregation.

Be sure to email the church with your response to the different opportunities to serve, learn and grow.

The celebration with Bishop Gwinn is detailed more. There are important dates and details about our many ministries throughout the newsletter.
NEW THIS MONTH: in the online addition, links in the newsletter for follow-up have been added so you can go right from the newsletter to the link- no "cut and paste" needed. AND: The Family Page: some fun items for you (even for a family of 1). Let us know what you think of these improvements. Also, do you prefer the "List of Events" to be simply included with the newsletter link, or do you like it being separate? This month, it is included in the main document. June's Servant List.
