Mother's Day and Pentecost Sunday. No two subjects could more appropriately be joined. Pentecost Sunday celebrates the birth of the Christian Church with the coming of the Holy Spirit to enliven, empower and strengthen new Christians. Mother's Day celebrates new birth of God's human creation, and the sustained nurture and care for that new life. The child born and nurtured by parents who love the Lord Jesus, and are surrendered to Him have a family life charged by the Holy Spirit, strengthened and led by Hem, and equipped to be true servants of our Lord, Jesus. We celebrate both days with the prayer that the day will be blessed on both accounts.

Disaster ReliefWant
a good place to give for relief? It's hard to beat the United Methodist
Committee On Relief, where 100% of your donation goes to meet needs,
and none is siphoned off for advertising or administration. Make your
check payable to Mission San Marcos with UMCOR on the memo line, bring it here to church and
we'll send it in. For more information, the "National UMC News" tab at
the top of this site will take you to umc.org, where stories about
relief efforts can be found.
Our
prayers are with the soldiers and civilians who continue to face danger
in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other dangerous posts across
the world. Pray for those who have lost loved ones on all sides, and that the Prince of Peace may lead us to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East and around the world.
Prayer Room
The Prayer Room off the sanctuary is open weekdays during office hours
(Mon-Thu 8:00-5:00) for anyone who wishes to come in and pray. No key
necessary- come and stay as long as you like. There is a notebook for
prayer requests and reports to be shared.
The pastor's email address is pastor@missionsanmarcos.net or general inquiries are welcome at info@missionsanmarcos.net
Let us know you stopped by!
God bless you, and see you in church!
