Welcome to Emory Church, On the Square in New Oxford!
Emory Church is working with God in building a caring community that connects, discovers and serves together!
John Wesley is quoted as saying, “The world is my parish”. With Emory Church being right on the Square in New Oxford, we are blessed to have New Oxford as our parking lot. When you visit us please feel free to park anywhere around the square and the town. We do reserve space directly in front of Emory for visitors and those who might need to have closer access to us.
Sunday school is held at 9:00 a.m. for all ages with Worship at 10:00 a.m.
From this Past Sunday
Faith through Deeds
Sunday, March 17, 2019
Our Scripture focus was on James 2:14-18.
Linda Vesey from New Hope Ministries shares with us "Faith through Deeds".
Our takeaways were to:
- Read Week 12 of Coast to Coast readings.
- CONNECT with an open heart to compassion.
- DISCOVER time in my schedule to serve.
- SERVE with open hands, volunteer, offer a lift, get groceries or stop for coffee.
- Pray for God to use me to be the hands and feet of Christ.
