Welcome Bishop Sally Dyck and Sarah Ehrman, Teaching and Preaching at UCUMC on Sunday, April 15th.

We will welcome Bishop Sally Dyck and Sarah Ehrman to UCUMC on Sunday.  They are the authors of A Hopeful Earth: Faith, Science, and the Message of Jesus, which focuses on questions of faith, science and responsibility in our relationship to God’s creation.

Join us at 9:30 a.m. in the Yoder Room as Bishop Dyck and Ms. Ehrman ask us to consider “Would Jesus Bless This Food?”  We acknowledge the importance of food in our biblical faith but would Jesus bless the food that we are producing and eating?

Join us for worship at 11:00 a.m., when Bishop Dyck will share the morning message, “Practicing Resurrection.”  The morning’s scripture is John 20:19-31.

Sally Dyck is a Bishop of the Minnesota Conference of the United Methodist Church.  Prior to her election as Bishop in 2004, she served the faith communities of Church of the Redeemer and Garfield Memorial United Methodist Church.  Sarah Ehrman is an educator specializing in environmental science with high school students in Napa, CA. She is Sally’s niece and the daughter of UMUMC members Jane and Jim Ehrman.
