Sunday Worship Schedule:
We offer two
services: 8:30 am & 11:00am
|
Worship
services are held in the Sanctuary. All are
welcome to participate in worship services
including families with children. Children's
activity bags are available at the back of the
sanctuary to keep little ones occupied. In the
event your little one(s) finds the experience
overwhelming you are welcome to bring your child
to our nursery which is staffed with two
workers.
Hymnals are
used to display worship music and are housed on
the back of each pew. Churchwide program
announcements are made, worship attendees are
led in prayer, and Rev. Clark Lynn Callender
delivers an inspiring sermon. Worship concludes
with a closing hymn. Services typically
last one hour. |
Enter through the
front doors of the church.
The church
sanctuary is upstairs (staircase on both sides

Are children welcome to attend worship services?
Absolutely! We encourage all
children to attend worship. We have activity bags
available at the back of the Sanctuary to keep the
children engaged during worship (an hour is a long time
to kids).
If you're not sure how your child will
behave during worship we suggest the following:
- Give it a try...never assume it won't
work.
Be patient...we don't mind a little noise- if
it escalates- simply move to the back of the
Sanctuary or bring your little one to the nursery.
Remember, we all have to start our worship experience
sometime!
- Small doses of worship time might work
well. Maybe 20 minutes is all your little one can
handle at this point in time. Not a problem.
Simply bring your child down to the nursery and come
back to enjoy the remainder of worship.
- Some members found that sitting
in a different location each week and pointing out
the different 'sites' prior to start of worship kept
it interesting.
- Please keep your child by your
side at all times. The Sanctuary, a wonderful
site to behold can be a dangerous place for a
wondering little one. Stairways, candles,
risers and little ones don't mix. We want your
children to be safe at all times.
Communion
The
communion table in the United Methodist Church is open
to all who profess their faith in Jesus Christ, without
regard to age or church membership.
Communion
is served during worship at 8:30 a.m.& 11:00 a.m. on the
first Sunday of each month.
We also
have a Eucharistic Ministry Team that will serve
communion to those who are not able to physically attend
worship. To receive communion via the team please
contact Maria Pignatelli (Church Secretary) at
609.597.7666 or email at
admin@manahawkinmethodist.org
Special Worship Services:
Periodically we will have changes in our worship
schedule, most commonly during Christmas (Advent) & Lent
(Easter). Please check our
online calendar for any changes. |
