MAYO UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

ROLE AND MISSION STATEMENT

We come together as Christians to love and support one another as we serve God, to be loyal to Christ's Holy Church through our prayers, presence, gifts, and service, to reach out to the community and world with God's love and the Lordship of His Son Jesus Christ.

Mayo United Methodist Church in Edgewater, Maryland welcomes you. Though we are a small congregation, our impact in the community is wide ranging. In addition to regular Sunday Services and Sunday School, the church hosts a daily pre-school, Scouting programs, a strong youth program and Bible studies. We support missionaries in Africa and Malaysia, the Lighthouse Shelter in Annapolis, the Arundel Habitat For Humanity, Appalachia Service Project and provide scholarships for summer church camps. We also support the South County Food Bank. We have traditional activities like the United Methodist Women and regular confirmation classes, but we are also known for our uncommonly good social events that reflect the bounty and easy lifestyle of the Chesapeake Bay.

The distinguishing feature of the congregation is the creation of an accepting and loving environment for all people to share. This church provides a place for true seekers to grow in spiritual matters at the pace that God sets. We understand that one soul's needs are different from the next. Thus we encourage people to not sit in judgment of one another, but to show each other the quiet understanding and tolerance that are the fruits of a Spirit-filled life. We have faith that God will reveal to each of us that which we need to know and that he will provide for our needs according to his riches in glory.

Join us each Sunday for our Informal Service at 9:30 a.m. or Worship at 11:00 a.m. Childcare is provided during both services.

Rev. Betty Dunlop, Pastor
