Ryland Epworth United Methodist Church

Thought for the Week:
         As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way;
the voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight-"  John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
