| The Port Byron Methodist Church sets on several acres of land on the edge of Port Byron. Several housing additions now surround the church and we try to make it a community center for Scouting activities, 4-H groups, Township meetings, local recreation association meetings, etc. We strive to serve God by reaching out to the community. We have a mission room that is used for putting Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets together for the needy. This project is accomplished by the Riverdale Unit #100 school nurse and lots of helpers. Also, when needed, clothes are sorted in this room, again for those in need. We work with Church of the Cross to provide towels and other necessities for men's and women's shelters. We have many active groups including choir, United Methodist Women, Bible School, Prayer Partner Ministries, Sunday School, and take part in Bible studies and other Christian Education classes. We enjoy the opportunity of worship and working with all our Twin Rivers Cooperative Parish friends. |
