IN-PERSON WORSHIP TO BEGIN SUNDAY, MARCH 7
MUMC’s Health-Admin Team has determined that it is now safe to allow in-person worship in conjunction with live-streaming beginning March 7, with the following guidelines:
- The number of people that will be allowed in the Sanctuary at any one time will be limited to 25%-30% of capacity (25).
- If you wish to attend worship in person, you’ll need to reserve your space on-line by 5 p.m. on Saturday. MUMC has created a reservation system on the Sign Up Genius website, which reflects all reservations and the number of seats available, noting when reservations are closed. Watch your email for details on using Sign Up Genius. Individuals without internet may call the office or Pastor Sue to reserve their space, and they will be added to the Sign Up Genius reservation list.
- Persons with reservations must put on a face mask before entering the church, review the standard Covid-19 health questions as they enter (questions are posted in the lobby), and have their temperature checked upon entering.
- Worshipers should proceed from the lobby, without stopping to visit, and go directly to empty numbered seats closest to the front of the Sanctuary, filling the Sanctuary from front to back.
- At the end of worship, worshipers will be reminded to exit the Sanctuary from the back rows first, maintaining the 6-foot distance required, and proceeding to exit the church without stopping to visit inside. You are welcome to visit outside in the fresh air!

A Letter from the Pastor
Dear MUMC Family and Friends,
I have a few favorite movies that I have watched several times over the years.
Each time, I always notice something new. I think to myself, “Wow, how could I miss that scene or line?” But I did. That is one of reasons I watch these movies over and over again.
I think that this is also true when we read stories from the Bible. One of the most famous Biblical stories is when Peter got out of the boat and later sank. So, we were told, “Fix your eyes on Jesus not the storm. Don’t fail like Peter.” But actually, Peter walked on water before he sank. That part we seldom talk about, and even miss. Peter walked on water. What an exhilarating experience that must have been!
So did Peter fail? John Ortberg said in his book, If you want to walk on water, you’ve got to get out of the boat:
In a way he did. But I think there were eleven bigger failures sitting in the boat.
They failed quietly. They failed privately. Their failure went unnoticed, unobserved, uncriticized. Only Peter knew the shame of public failure. But only Peter knew
the glory of walking on the water. He alone knew what it was to attempt to do
what he was not capable of doing on his own, then feeling the euphoria of being empowered by God to actually do it. I think Peter carried that joyous moment with him
to his grave. And only Peter knew that glory of being lifted up by Jesus in a moment
of desperate need. Peter had a shared moment, a shared connection, a shared trust
in Jesus that none of the others had.
The ministry plan (see page #) is a tool to encourage and help us get out of the “boat” to walk on water with Jesus and reach out those who don’t the Lord yet. As we implement those plans in our lives and our church, we may feel that we are getting out of the boat. But believers, let us step out in faith so that we, MUMC, may experience and know the glory of walking on the water with Jesus. May it be our wonderful story to tell to many generations to come in our church history!
In Christ,
Sue Lee
