Welcome to the Mexico (NY) Methodist Church
ONCE AGAIN IT IS TIME FOR THE HEIFER FUND DRIVE
Creating Change
For 75 years Heifer's cornerstones have empowered people to change their lives.
https://www.heifer.org/about-heifer/index.html
This “not a cup, but a cow” thought was the driving force behind founder Dan West which led to Heifer International. Now, 75 years later, the “teach a man to fish” philosophy still inspires our work to end world hunger and poverty once and for all and has transformed the lives of millions.
Participation is simple. If you haven’t already done so, pick up a coin box at Church and fill it with your spare change over the Lenten season. April 28th is the scheduled date to hand in your ark.

Regional Gathering
Bishop Webb Announces May 13th Meeting
Upper New York Area Resident Bishop Mark J. Webb has announced regional gatherings that he will be hosting throughout the Upper New York Conference in April and May. These regional gatherings will primarily focus on unpacking the Judicial Council's decision regarding the constitutionality of the petitions that made up the Traditional Plan affirmed by the delegates of the 2019 Special Session of The General Conference. It will also be a time to help attendees to understand what becomes part of the Book of Discipline on January 1, 2020 and what does not. These times will include an opportunity for questions and conversation about what God might be doing in and through The United Methodist Church in the future. There will be a brief time of worship at each gathering as well.
The date, time, and location of the gathering closest to us is: May 13, 2019 from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.: CICERO UMC
Further Considerations
THE CONCEPT OF RETHINKING CHURCH, ISN'T NEW
(Click above and check for update)
It's rooted in our Wesleyan heritage. It's defined by our social principles. It's part of what makes United Methodists unique.
