Morning Worship

Join us for worship on Sunday mornings in our beautiful sanctuary. Our traditional worship service begins at 11:00 a.m. and features music by the Worship Choir. Special soloists, youth choir, and instrumental selections are also featured on selected Sundays. Pastor Hunt brings a meaningful message each week, and is assisted throughout the service by Lay Liturgists. Communion is offered on the first Sunday of each month.

Special observance services are held with our community churches at Lent, Easter and Thanksgiving. Dates and times are announced as planned.

 

Riverside Services

For the months of June through August, the Brookfield and Immanuel congregations enjoy worshiping God (one Sunday a month) at an outdoor service at the Riverside Pavilion of Viola Lee and Chip Lee. A tradition begun under Rev. Ray Lytle, members, friends and the community come as they can, dressed casually, armed with an outdoor chair to enjoy God’s message. A wonderful time of seeing the morning through God’s eyes along side the beauty of the river. Refreshments are always available and a wonderful sharing of God’s world awaits you.

Sunday School

Immanuel’s Sunday School begins each Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. in the church hall; classes are available for all ages. Please contact Nina Voehl at info-IUMC@gmail.com.

Lots of activities are planned, special events held, special singing, plays, and skits.

As part of their outreach studies, the youth have developed a church-wide collection of canned goods that they donate quarterly to the local Community Support Services.

 

 

 

PRAISE GOD WITH MUSIC

Music is an integral part of Immanuel’s Worship.  Immanuel’s Worship choir meets each Wednesday evening at 7 to rehears traditional and contemporary Christian music for each Sunday’s morning worship as well as for special services throughout the year.  Special soloists, youth choir, and instrumental selections are also featured on selected Sundays. 

Immanuel and Brookfield rehearse together, alternating rehearsals at each church, since the Music Director, Sandy Cross, serves in the capacity at both churches.

Each year the Brookfield and Immanuel Choir members invite other church members as well as members of community church choirs to join us for a wonderful morning presentation of a Christmas Cantata.  We begin rehearsals in October. The cantata includes not only the choir members, but the youth of both churches as participants.  This year, as an added treat, many volunteer ladies from both churches will be making vests for December’s Cantata presentation.

 

Youth Choir

 

Under the direction of Nina Voehl and Cherry Lynn Tarbox, the Youth of the Sunday School perform at various times during the year.  Their contributions include plays, octave bells, keyboard, and trumpet.  Anyone interested in participating, come to Sunday School at 9:30 a.m. on Sunday mornings at our hall.
