Greetings, Church,
As part of Monticello’s 75th, we will welcome Rev. Mike Slaughter this coming weekend for inspiration and learning.
Rev. Slaughter is Pastor Emeritus of Ginghamsburg Church near Dayton, OH and Chief Strategist with Passionate Churches. He is a faithful Jesus follower and has decades of experience as a pastoral leader, serving in vital and growing ministry. Previously, teams from Monticello UMC travelled to Ohio to worship with Ginghamsburg and learn from Rev. Slaughter. And now he is coming to Statesville!! He will be our guest preacher during worship this coming Sunday, October 24 at 11:00 a.m.
We hope that you will also join the session with Rev. Slaughter in person in our church facility this coming Saturday, October 23 from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 noon.
