“I ask you, the faithful Christ-followers, to continue to support the work and ministry of your local United Methodist Church. As Christ-followers, you and I are bearers of light – the good news of Jesus Christ. Keep praying without ceasing that God’s grace and Christ’s love will be made known in our ministries. All of this, we hold in prayer, asking for the Holy Spirit to continue to guide us forward with hope.”
