  • The annual Tent-A-Thon is a family event to benefit Habitat for Humanity, being held August 13-19 at Tawasentha Park on Route 146W in Guilderland. Participants sleep in tents to demonstrate their commitment to eliminating poverty and sub-standard housing. Each camper collects donations from family, friends and co-workers for their efforts on behalf of Habitat for Humanity. Campers enjoy music, softball, games, free food and campfires. You can camp one night or all seven. Besides collecting pledges and camping (the greatest need), you can support other campers from the church; help with transporting and set-up or break-down for a 2-hour commitment on Thursday afternoon, 8/13, and/or Thursday evening, 8/20; pick up food from a restaurant for the evening meal; entertain at the campfire; or watch campers' tents and belongings during the days while they are not around. To enlist, e-mail Kevin Conley.


  • So many of us share memories with Woody & Carole. You are invited to share them in the memory books located in the Narthex as well as in Fellowship Hall on Sundays. (During the week at least one of the books will be available in Church Office, as well.) You can also e-mail comments to the Church Office and they will be included in the book. This transition in their lives will be eased by the fond memories you share with them. Please take time to share your kind words in one of these books.


  • Several "elder" members of our church family are, or soon will be, unable to join us for worship due to lack of transportation. All of us can testify to the importance of maintaining this vital link with this community of faith and fellowship. Even if for only one Sunday, at your convenience, you are able to provide transportation to and from worship (more would be wonderful, of course!), please contact Church Office, 439-9976 or churchoffice@delmarmethodist.org. Please consider helping us with this important ministry. We promise, you'll be glad you did!


  • Are you passionate about kids? We are seeking individuals who are willing to teach church school one Sunday this summer. All materials will be provided. Please contact Jen Bailey, Director of Christian Education at 439-9976 ext. 225 or via email if you are interested in this opportunity.


  • "Falling On Purpose " - Rev. Janice Palm's sermon from Sunday, June 28 - is available here.


    Our June 24 Telescope newsletter may be downloaded here. (Next issue: July 15.) An archive of sermons, newsletters and our Milestone publications is available here. If you’d be interested in receiving e-mails to notify you whenever a new Telescope is on-line, drop a note to the Church Office.
