Worship at 8:30 and 11:00 am
In worship on Sunday we share in our annual celebration of being a Reconciling Congregation - a congregation that welcomes all people regardless of social categories, and that specifically welcomes and fully includes gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender persons, in contrast to those churches who are not welcoming and inclusive. This year we celebrate DUMC's long history as a Reconciling Congregation and how those deep roots create a firm foundation for our future openness, too.
Preacher: Rev. Kelly Love
Sermon: "Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors"

3. Davis Chorale Interfaith Vespers Concert, June 12th
Now that the Davis Community Church sanctuary's remodel is completed, the Davis Chorale is excited to try out the improved acoustics and to present once again a traditional Vespers concert in that space on Sunday, June 12th at 5 pm.
Due to its variety of music, audience involvement, and short duration, the concert is suitable for families with children. Admission is free, but donations are gratefully accepted.

1. IRWS Volunteers Needed
Can you contribute 2-5 hours a month? Only your time, caring and thought are required. IRWS feeds and houses 150 homeless guests each season. We are looking for team members to support the ongoing work of shelter operations. All teams will have the support and guidance of the board. From the specific tasks below, which one might call to you?
- The Host Site team coordinates support of hosting congregations, fire inspections, online volunteer signups, hospitality supplies, and truck rental.
- The Shelter Operations Team coordinates and maintains needed supplies, printed forms, the Intake process, and shelter phones and Wi-Fi access.
- The Community Engagement Team coordinates connections in the community, contacting prospective donors, mentoring guests to find services, organizational visits at the shelter, and fundraising.
Will you help with just one of these tasks? Whichever you choose, you won't be working alone. Learn more about these and other opportunities to serve. Come to an informational meeting:
Monday, June 13th, 7:00 pm

2. New Fellowship Coordinator Needed
DUMC is looking for a new Fellowship Coordinator, starting in July. The job is fairly simple - arrange which one of our many wonderful Fellowship hosts (there is a list) is willing to provide snacks each Sunday (two hosts per week for the two different services). This can be done on a weekly basis (as has been past practice) or once a month depending on personal preference. Additionally, it can be done by phone, email, or online sign-up. If this is a job you would be willing to take on, contact Anna in the office at davisumc@davisumc.org.
