Worship With Us

All Are Welcome!

At Polk City UMC, there are many ways to connect,
get involved, and join us in worship, service, and fellowship!

Great Expectations Worship Series

Lent 2024: Feb 14–March 31
Sometimes it seems as if the Gospel of Mark presents us with more questions than answers. Who is this Jesus? How does he teach with such authority? This Lent, we will lean into questions about expectations. What is my responsibility to God? What do I give? What do I take? What is the greatest commandment? How do I receive eternal life? All of our questions will lead us to Easter when expectations are upended by grace.

 

Holy Week Drama

Maundy Thursday, March 28, 7pm at Johnston River of Life and
Good Friday, March 29, 7pm at Polk City UMC

Again this year, we are partnering with Johnston River of Life UMC to present “At the Foot of the Cross,” a dramatization of the characters in the passion narrative and the procession to the cross. Plan to attend and invite a friend to this meaningful worship experience!


Flowers in Honor/Memory

Help us fill the sanctuary on Easter morning with beautiful flowers that you donate in honor or memory of a loved one! Flowers can be dropped off at good Friday service on March 29, or on Saturday morning, March 30 from 10-12. Brightly colored spring flowers are perfect, we request no lilies due to severe allergies within our congregation.  
You can sign up to honor your loved one in the narthex or online.

Easter Egg Hunt

Sunday, March 31 • 10:30am
Join us for our annual Easter Egg Hunt! We will start at 10:30 after church. There will be areas for younger children separate from the older ones. 

Booked! Bible Study!
