Postponement of Stepping out of the Boat

Sept 8 & 9th Stepping Out of the Boat kick-off weekend is being postponed for a later date.

With the possibility of Hurricane Irma,  and all it may do, we have decided to postpone the kick-off event planned for this weekend and reschedule for a future date to be determined.

Thank you for your understanding, as we look ahead at the upcoming weekend and desire safe travels for our guest speaker and members.

We will let everyone know when the event is rescheduled and look forward to having a great event at a later date.

Hurricane Harvey Disaster Response

As we watch news coverage of the devastating flooding that Hurricane Harvey continues to produce, we want to help.

Currently the best way to donate financially is through UMCOR’s US Disaster Response Advance #901670. You may place your check in the offering plate or bring to the church office. Please make your check payable to Mt. Olivet UMC and designate UMCOR US Disaster Response Advance #901670 on the memo line. Please continue to pray for those impacted so adversely by this storm and for the many workers and volunteers who are offering rescue and care to those in need. Thank you for caring!
