Keep the Faith
As we shelter in place, we can still come together in a spiritual sense to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Here are some alternative worship opportunities from Monaca UMC, as well as other local Methodist churches:
Devotions/Meditations with Pastor Nancy, Monaca UMC
Live on Wednesdays at 3:00pm (or view recordings at any time)
