Welcome to the GUM Blog


Greetings and welcome to our Church’s new Blog.

Alright, I guess we get too far into this I should try to explain what a Blog is for those who don’t know what I’m talking about. A blog (a portmanteau of web log) is a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. So it’s a really a place on the internet were a person or a group of people (like our Church) can post articles, videos, and write about what’s going on at Grace United Methodist Church.

The creation of this site corresponds with a new effort by Pastor John to prepare and adapt for the next generation of our Church Family. I’m excited to be part of this project and believe that this blog will be a useful tool in that effort.

So what can you expect from the GUM Blog? First and foremost this site will allow use to better communicate to our Church family and the people who live in our community. Now communication doesn’t just mean what time Church is at on Sundays. This is a site where we can post articles and important issues, the season, or about what’s happening here at Church. We can also post videos of our favorite praise songs and what that song means to us. It is our hope that this site will help us share our faith.

Make sure to bookmark this site so you can check in from time to time. Also, if you have a article that would be good to share pass it along. If you would like to write something for this site, we encourage you to do so.

See you on Sunday!
