Make a Commitment to serve God with McKendree United Methodist Church.
Read Pastor Cyndi’s letter to the congregation, where she describes how she grew in the three things she hopes for every person: that we would have a prayerful life, we would love and serve God through a church family, and we would find worth and security in God rather than seeking these elsewhere. Giving is part of spiritual growth.
The largest category in the church budget is the building. It’s a flexible, beautiful, and effective space for ministry. Will you be a part of the goal to pay off the mortgage by the end of 2025?Every gift counts! Thank you for your support.
