Being Disciples who Make Disciples
As lovers of God and followers of Jesus Christ, we are His disciples.
How are you listening for God's voice?
What steps are you taking to obey?
Small Bible Study groups are a tool to step in obedience to God as we study His word together, exploring what God is saying to us today and invite others to do the same.
Every day is a good day to join a small discipleship group. Just reach out and let's chat about it. - Pastor Donna

The Raymond First Thursday Kids Club is an after school program open to all Raymond students in grades kindergarten through 4th grade and is held at Raymond Methodist Church (next door to Raymond ES). One Thursday a month the students who are signed up will be picked up at Raymond at 4:00 pm and walk across the parking lot to the church. Students will have a snack and then will participate in listening & talking about the lesson, books, sing songs, puzzles and sometimes physical activities and crafts.
We finish at 5:30 pm, families are then responsible for transportation home. Students must be signed out by a designated parent or guardian. Parents are welcome to visit at any time. Our themes include positive character/behavior traits such as honesty, gratitude, kindness, obedience, love and compassion.

They were devoted daily...
One of our favorite devotionals is by JD Walt. You can find it on facebook, through the seedbed website, as a daily podcast, or a daily email. You can read it or listen along which is my (Pastor Donna) favorite because I enjoy singing along.
We also have the UPPER ROOM and OUR DAILY BREAD daily devotional books available for you at the church.
