SUNDAY WORSHIP SERVICE The Second Sunday of Lent March 5, 2023 9:30 AM
Dear FUMC family in Christ, How are you doing my friends? I pray that all of you are well in Christ. I want to invite all of you to the sanctuary to worship God. At the same time, I want you to recognize God's gifts in the building. Do you still remember that when we pray for new people? God sent us New Life Korean UMC and Life of God Church. We, three congregations, are trying to build up to ministry. The Spirit of God inspired us to use "One Church Ministry" at 1 Church St, one of our physical addresses. By God's grace, we now have a much closer relationship. We share our resources and ministry. If you want to know what they are. Come and join the worship. You will experience God's gifts through the One Church Ministry. Many blessings, Rev. Dong Hyun Choi

Dominating White Ways Workshop: Exploring the Commonplace Nature of White Supremacy and its Power to Co-opt Us All Saturday, April 15th, 2023 & Saturday, April 22nd, 2023 9:00 am -1:00 pm Virtual Event Registration is limited to 30 attendees This workshop is designed to help NYAC clergy, laity, Conference staff, and leadership understand the institutional nature of racism and the role organizations play in the equation. Oppression-and in particular, racism-is not only a matter of individual prejudice but a systemic, institutional problem of power that requires structural intervention to dismantle. This understanding is foundational to the training. White supremacy ideology is perhaps the greatest barrier to achieving socio-political, economic, cultural, and ecological sustainability in the USA. It is critically important that community and institutional leaders grasp the widespread constancy of white supremacy ideology; their conditioned investment in the ideology, and begin to imagine how to collaborate with others to dismantle it. This day-long workshop will offer participants tools and practices to assess & disrupt how the values and ways of being of white supremacy ideology operate their institutions.
