Location & Times

Volunteers Of The Month

Steve Godfrey

A devoted Methodist for over 50 years, Steve has served several congregations in varied capacities. He has been very active here at FUMC as a member of the choir which has always been a central feature of his involvement. He looks forward to the revival of our Traditional Choir this September. Steve has just completed our church directory which has been a monumental undertaking and has done an outstanding job. It really looks professional and has been a fantastic use of his photographic skills. These have been employed to our benefit in recording activities such as Volunteers in Mission, general goings on here at FUMC, constructing church calendars and a host of others. Steve has been a leader in the Methodist mission as a member of Trustees, Church Council, Leadership teams, Crisis Aversion and Finance Committees. He works in support of Carol for coordination of Sunday morning’s “Coffee and Treats”. The accomplishments of which he is most proud are the church building projects he has managed and his 30+ years working in support of the U.S. military.

Steve’s family includes his wife of 25 years, Carol. They have 3 boys, and 3 grandchildren. They have a pet cat named “Wittenberg”, affectionately called “Kitten”. Steve’s first job was mowing grass in high school as well as working at the library and mopping floors at a US Air Force photo studio. Photography became a central interest and was involved in all subsequent jobs. In his free time, he enjoys the beach and visiting new places, gardening, and, most importantly, spending time with his sweetheart, Carol. Vacationing is best wherever there is water, sand and Carol. Favorite foods include Mexican cuisine or hamburgers.

Steve is happiest when fellowship and enthusiasm combine at church to accomplish goals. His best work is when under pressure whatever time of day.

Please recognize Steve for the important and valuable contributions he makes to us at FUMC!

What is QCD?

The Required Minimum Distribution is the minimum amount individuals age 73+, must withdraw from their tax-differed retirement accounts (i.e. IRAs). A QCD is a Qualified Charitable Distribution, it is a direct transfer from an IRA account to a qualified charity, of which the church is. The benefit of the QCD is that it is exempt from federal income tax. The amount is not included in your taxable income and can be used to satisfy the requirement of the RMD. Additionally, a QCD may be made at age 70 ½ and older.

FAQ

What should I wear?

Come as you are. Jesus welcomed people just as they were, and we want you to feel that same grace here. Whether you wear jeans or something more dressed up, you’ll fit right in.

What time should I arrive?
For the Sunday services, parking is more crowded so we recommend you arrive 15-20 minutes beforehand so you can have time to walk to the church.
What about parking?
We have four Guest Parking spots in the front of our lot on the Allegheny St side of the church. However our parking spaces are very limited. Most people have to find parking on the street. Be aware of our neighbors’ driveways so they are not blocked.
How long are the services?
Our services generally last one hour. 

We Look Forward To Meeting You!
