Join us on October 13th at our 11:00 service for a powerful homecoming celebration which includes a great meal in our fellowship room right after worship. Rev. Dr. Joseph Crockett will be offering a message on “Getting to Jesus”. Rev. Crockett will be preaching from Mark 2: 1-12 where four friends lowered their paralyzed friend down to Jesus through the roof of the house where Jesus was staying. They couldn’t get through the crowd to bring him to Jesus so they chose this way of getting to Jesus. For more than 35 years, Joseph V. Crockett, CEO of Friendship Press, has served in a variety of ministry positions in response to his ordination as an elder in The United Methodist Church. He has worked as a student-pastor, associate pastor, pastor of a two-point charge, editor, and seminary professor. Before his election to lead the reactivation of Friendship Press, Inc., he was an Associate General Secretary for the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U.S.A.  Joseph and his wife Renee were active participants at Belmont UMC for a number of years and contributed greatly to the life of the church.
