Our church is very active on Facebook! We have established an “official” Facebook Page and a Group which provides a space to announce and discuss issues of interest to the entire church. In addition to these “official church-wide” areas, individual ministry teams within our church have set up their own specific Facebook Pages or Groups.
However, Social Media give you a window on the heartbeat of the church. Explore our Facebook pages and groups to learn more about the people of PUMC and to catch the latest information as it happens.

“Official” Church-Wide Facebook Feeds…
PUMC has a Facebook “Fan Page” and Group. The page can be seen by anyone (you don’t need a Facebook account to view Pages). The Page generally contains posts referencing items on the Website, but other posts from “Friends” will frequently be shared. In order to enter the Group, you must have a Facebook account. Both the Page and Group are very active.

As the school year approaches, sometimes anxieties and pressures may come to mind. Will I like my teachers? Will my friends and I have the same classes? How will I find time to get everything done? But can we pause for a moment? In Psalms 147, King David exclaims "He renews our hopes and heals our bodies. He decided how many stars there would be in the sky and gave each one a name." As Charles Spurgeon writes, let's think of this stark contrast, our Heavenly Father designs and cares for each of our hopes and wounds, while also naming and holding each star in the sky. Only our Father's infinite love and compassion can fill that space between the Heavens and the Earth. If God has such an intimate acquaintance with each star, think of the awe and wonder we would live in, when we trust Him to supply each friend, each teacher, each class, each minute. As the latest skillet single praises, "if You can hold the stars in place, You can hold my heart the same." The next time we feel worried or fearful, let's pause and look up to the One who holds the stars. 🌟✨💫 Interested in the eclipse? Check out Rowan's eclipse celebration from 1 to 4 PM on Monday! Don't forget - 🇺🇸Pray at the Pole and Pool Party 🏊🏼♀️ on Wednesday. Meet at PUMC at 5 PM!

B.L.A.S.T. returned from another awesome week at Malaga Camp! "His love makes no sense.
I turned to the woman next to me (who later would become a new friend) and cried, “Why does Jesus love me so much? I don’t deserve it!!!”
She said, “Because that’s just who He is.”
That’s just who God is. That’s just who He is. God is love. God gives love to those who don’t even deserve it, because that’s who He is. He loves no matter who you are, what you’ve done, what you can’t or can do. He loves no matter what job you have, where you’re from, whether you’re Christian or not Christian. God loves…me. God loves…you. God loves because that’s just who He is." - Kayla, a beautiful addition to our Malaga Camp Middler staff. #middlersenior17
