MARSHVILLE
UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

Once upon a time there was a man who had nothing. God gave him ten apples. God gave the first three apples to eat. God gave him three more apples to trade for shelter from the heat in the summer and the cold in the winter. Then God gave the man three more apples to trade for clothing to wear. The last apple God gave so the man might have something to give back to God to express his great gladness and gratitude at such divine provision. But this tenth apple looked so luscious, and the man reasoned that God owned all the other apples in the world and how could God miss this one measly apple, so he ate the tenth apple, and gave back to God the core. During the remainder of November we are exploring in worship what it means to be good stewards of God’s created. How do we worship God with our prayers, our presence, our gifts, our service and our witness? Prayerfully, we seek to honor God with a bit more than the core. Come join us and see how at attitude of gratitude is both blessing and blessed. See you on Sunday!
