Pastor Jeannine tells the children about the true meaning of Memorial Day. Article by Joyce L. Wiedrich 06-05-2025 Pastor Jeannine told the children how men and women bravely fought for us and our freedoms in the United States. Jesus also fought for us, for our sins. Jesus gave his life up for our souls. Memorial Day was made a national holiday May 30, 1971. The birthplace of Memorial Day is nearby Waterloo, New York. In Pastor Jeannine’s sermon she told that the traditions of decorating graves of the Civil War dead began in 1868, after the Civil War. Pastor Jeannine explained that Memorial Day is so much more than a barbecue. We have a free strong nation worth fighting for, where we can freely preach God‘s word. Heroic acts on the battlefield have made our country what it is today. Every Sunday is a Memorial Day for Christians. Michele Covert read a poem by Blanche Fingar entitled Memorial Day. We are so fortunate to have Blanche as our poet! Thank you, Linda and Mike Folts for tasty treats after our service. Welcome back Leah Dibble. We know you have enjoyed the sunny south this winter but now it’s great to have you back on Keuka Lake! Many of us enjoyed the patriotic service and Memorial Day parade in Dresden on Memorial Day, with a chicken barbecue at our sister church, Dresden United Methodist Church. It was a beautiful sunny day!
Pastor Jeannine spoke to the children today about being prepared- for cold, for sun, and for rain, as Jesus prepared the disciples for what was going to happen. Article by Joyce L. Wiedrich 05-29-2025 Whether it be sunny, cold, or raining, it’s important for us to be prepared. Pastor Jeannine put on some sunglasses and got out her rain umbrella, showing the children how to be prepared for different conditions. Jesus tried to prepare the disciples for his death. He told them that he loved them, and that he would be back. Pastor Jeannine reminded us of the song by Tina Turner, What’s Love got to do with It? Love is the center of everything. Jesus ministered to the unwanted, he loved the unlovable, he came to serve, not to judge others. Pastor Jeannine explained to us that sometimes we need practice to love one another as Jesus has loved us. Before Jesus died, he washed the feet of many. Jesus loved us, he healed us, he fed us, and he died for us. We need to love just as he did- it’s not a negotiable command. Prayers for the family of Matt Davison who recently passed away. Many of us in the congregation knew him well. Thank you, Marilyn Sands and Christie Mosch for your tasty fellowship treats after our service! Welcome back travelers!! The Stempiens and the Wyants recently returned from exciting journeys. Many of our snowbirds are also returning back to us! So good to see them! .
Everyone is welcome at Bluff Point United Methodist Church! Article by Joyce L. Wiedrich 05-22-2025 Our Bible lesson today was from John 10: 22-30. It sees Jesus in the temple for Hanukkah in December. The father and I are one! Is Jesus relevant today? Pastor Jeannine recalled a television commercial for a cellular company showing a Shepherd in his field making a cell phone call. Jesus is always our good Shepherd and we are his sheep. Jesus deals with our 21st-century problems as much as he did back when he was alive. Jesus wants us to love. There’s no cause for hate. We are all Jesus‘s of the 21st-century. Jesus tells us not to listen to the voices of the world, but to listen to him. For her sermon, Pastor Jeannine looked at Mother’s Day. Some of us did not have a great relationship with our mothers. Many of us did. A mother’s love turns the other cheek when things don’t go right with relationships. Remember the United Methodist annual conference is Thursday through Saturday May 22-24. All are welcome to attend. We are also invited to the Memorial Day celebration and chicken barbecue at Dresden United Methodist Church on Monday, May 26 at 11:00am, Memorial Day. It was nice to see so many visitors in church for Mother’s Day. Pastor Jeannine gave all the women a gift to celebrate the day. We also had a yummy cake and fruit and coffee after service. Thanks to the 10 people that helped do the road clean up last week. We have a 2 mile stretch and 54 that we tidy up at least twice a year as one of our church missions The rain held off and we got it done! Thanks to Dick Smith for gathering our supplies into Jean Murdock for driving the road while we picked up trash, bringing supplies and keeping an eye on us.
