Faith like this….
Welcome to
Mt. Pleasant
United Methodist Church
I am a
Child of God
I know it. I live it. I love it!
As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
“Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will send you out to fish for people.” At once they left their nets and followed him.
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets.
Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.
I believe Faith is UNAVOIDABLE

FAITH is HARDER than we like!
If you find God with ease, perhaps it is not God you have found. – T. Merton
FAITH is CAUGHT more than TAUGHT
If we live with integrity, nothing else matters.
If we don’t live with integrity, nothing else matters.
"There is only one way to bring up a child in the way he should go and that is to travel that way yourself."
— Abraham Lincoln
Church is not just a place we go, it’s who you become.
Faith is…
I share it!
