California-Nevada Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church
We are back! Please come join us at the Nevada City United Methodist Church as we now are having a live Worship Service each Sunday at 10am. The Service is Live Streamed at 10am on Sunday as it occurs. Thus, it appears on our website at nevadacitymethodist.com live while it happens. A video of the Service is also made available for viewing on our website.
This began Sunday July 4th at 10am with our new Pastor Gail Chiew. You are always most welcome to join us in church at 433 Broad Street! The Services will continue to be Live Streamed on our website as they happen at 10am Sunday so those not able to attend in person may view the Service on-line on their computers just as been done in the past. As noted above, videos of the Services are available for viewing on our website at any time you choose.
Like you, we have been most anxious for this to happen and welcome this return to normalcy!
Solar News
August 1, 2018 38 solar panels were installed on the church roof and the cost was $41,850. Funds were raised and after the down payment we took out a loan for $21,996. Your continued generous gifts for this project have enabled us to PAY OFF the loan on May 14, 2021 and saved thousands of dollars in interest. Our annual electric bills prior to solar averaged $4000 to $4500. Now about $450.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!
Report on Interfaith Food Ministry
by Eleanor Kenitzer
Our Partnership with Interfaith Food Ministry is a blessing to the community as well as to all of us! During the Pandemic, our church has stepped into make sure that all in Nevada County are fed—and you’ve done that with incredible generosity! Thank you!
IFM is serving more than 11,000 clients who are food insecure, giving out more food per visit. Partnership with local groups like Sierra Harvest and local farmers means fresh fruit and vegetables are available, while also helping to keep our money in Nevada County.
Sustainability is so important for non-profit organizations and the Board of Directors of IFM work diligently to make sure that there is money in the operating reserves account as well as the facility reserves account.
The March Matching campaign was such a success, thanks to many of you! A total amount of $226,122.20 was collected—and that is 1/3 of the total budget for the year!
None of this would be possible with-out the generosity of this community—and this church does a wonderful job of helping to feed our community. Thank you!
Choir Rehearsals
Hooray! We get to make a joyful noise again! We will start rehearsals the first Thurs-day in September—September 2, 2021. I’ll get more information out about masks and physical distancing as the time gets closer. But, our singing souls long to make music with other singers after such a “dry season”!
Interested in joining? We’d love to have you and you know, of course, that the choir is the funnest group! (we also make beautiful music for the Lord!)
Family Fun Night
If you've been missing our monthly taco and salad bar, followed by fellowship and games, well...... cry no more! We will resume the last Sunday of August, August 29, at 5 PM, in the church Fellowship Hall. After the 16 month hiatus, I'll try to remember how to cook! — Eleanor Kenitzer
