Church is family.
Though our caroling at the Mars Hill nursing home was canceled, we gathered together for lunch fellowship.
We sat around the large long table as one family. We celebrated Elizabeth's 16th birthday, as well as John's 93rd birthday together. We remembered the one in the ER and prayed for the one just bereaved of the child.
We laughed and mourned together. We rejoiced and wept together. We shared our lives together.
Our Christian fellowship is eternal. German Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer said, "He who looks upon his brother should know that he will be eternally united with him in Jesus Christ."
How comforting, how glorious news it is! Come and join us for our eternal Christian fellowship. You are invited to our worship service this Sunday. Hodgdon and Mars Hill church families gather at 9 am, and the Houlton at 11 am. You can also worship with us online via the church's Facebook Live:
- Hodgdon UMC
- Houlton UMC: Youtube I Facebook

Have a blessed weekend. See you Sunday!
In Christ,
Pastor Victor
