PENDING GROVE DEDICATION SERVICE

A Dedication Service for the Dingmans Ferry UMC Grove for Prayer and Meditation is planned for Sunday, August 21st, 2016. There will be a single service on this Sunday at 10 a.m., followed by a brunch in Fellowship Hall.  The service will be conducted at the Grove site, with chairs at the end of the parking lot adjacent to the Grove augmenting the seating benches in the Grove itself.  A speaker system will be used to project both music and the spoken word at the service.  During the service, attendees will be given the opportunity to visit various features of the Grove, assisted by volunteers who will be stationed to provide some interpretation of those features.  The service will also include special music and scriptures appropriate to the various themes of the Grove for Prayer and Meditation, as well as a ‘Blessing’ of the “Book of Recognition and Grateful Appreciation,” which recognizes all who have played a part in contributing to the funding and development of the Grove.  All three of our Dingmans Ferry UMC pastors will play a role in the proceedings of this service.
