At The ChurchNicodemus Fund Nicodemus was a Pharisee and a member of the Sanhedrin, the Jewish court in Jerusalem. When Jesus Christ was tried before the Sanhedrin, Nicodemus spoke on his behalf. In keeping with that spirit, the congregation of the Castle Rock United Methodist Church tries to help members of the community who also needs someone to help in their time of need. The fund is used to help anyone in our community with assistance in purchasing food, medicines and other necessities of basic life needs. For those who need help, the Nicodemus Fund, Like Nicodemus himself will be there to help. Join Friendly Callers This group meets on the third Thursday of the month at 2:30PM.
