Thank you all for participating in the Ride the Rails to Rocky Railway VBS!We were so pleased to see everyone when you picked up your Train Cases. Have fun riding the rails with us!
Ride the Rails to Rocky Railway VBS will join a mission effort to provide much-needed food for families right here in the High Country who need our help by partnering paper writing with “A Simple Gesture: Sharing Food in Our Community.”
Boone Area Missions – The local missions initiative of Boone UMC.
There is a clear pattern throughout scriptures: God cares for the poor, the suffering, the orphans, the widows, the foreigners, and he expects His people to do the same. We see commandments in the Old Testament to care for those in need, we see Christ came to proclaim the good news to the poor, and we see the early church rapidly responding to the needs of those in their community.
While enjoying the beautiful mountains this summer, there are a variety of ways to connect with old friends at Boone UMC and make new ones.
We have seen the Lord do amazing things and move us in amazing ways this school year. We believe is only going to continue….that the Lord desires to do GREATER THINGS than He has already done!
Fine Arts Camp – July 8-12
Dr. Shawn Roberts will lead us as we experience drumming and native movements. We will sing and enjoy the wonders of God’s universe.
