News - Recent Headlines - UMC.org: "., Royal Oak, Mich., Huntsville, Ala., Fargo, N.D., and Geneva, Ill., support the efforts of Board of Global Ministries"

I'm excited about Wednesday night and getting to meet Remigijus, pastor of Kybartai UMC, in Lithuania. Remigijus will be giving a presentation Wednesday evening at 6:30 in Wesley Hall about the things that are going on in his church and in Lithuania.

Trinity has partnered with Kybartai UMC to help them build a new church building. Their current space is inadequate for many reasons, not the least of which being the services that are standing room only. Culturally and socially, Kybartai UMC needs a new building due to how the congregation is perceived and given status by the local government. Having a building will allow them to be in greater ministry in so many different ways.

Trinity has pledged part of its budget to Kybartai UMC, but our part only covers a portion of the total cost. They are in need of much more. You can contact Trinity directly with questions on how to give, or use the links in the linked article.
