The Methodist Women's Fellowship at Tulare United Methodist Church is a vibrant community dedicated to fostering spiritual growth, friendship, and service. Committed to the principles of faith, love, and compassion, our fellowship provides a supportive environment where women from all walks of life can come together to deepen their relationship with God and each other.
Through regular meetings, prayer circles, and engaging discussions, we strive to uplift and empower one another in our faith journey. Additionally, our fellowship actively engages in various outreach initiatives and charitable endeavors, extending our hands of love and support to those in need within our church family and the wider community. Join us as we continue to grow in faith, serve with love, and make a positive difference in the lives of others.
Hebrews 11:8
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to set out for a place that he was to receive as an inheritance, and he set out, not knowing where he was going.
Back when we used road maps, I had a map of Northern California that ended at Merced, so when I was hired for a job in Corcoran, I did not know where I was going. I had to turn the page to that mysterious Southern California map. I had modern conveniences that Abraham did not have, but there was so much I did not know about where I was going. Like Abraham, I set out by faith, and like Abraham, I received an inheritance of unexpected blessings, together with many challenges.
Over and over throughout my life, faith has enabled me to step out into the unknown. At each stop on the way, I have joined my local United Methodist church, where I have found support, friendships, meaning, and purpose.
Faith is not only about moving to a new city or taking on a new challenge. Faith also means that many of the words in our sacred book are commands from our Lord. I was blessed to work nearly thirteen years in a job that allowed me to spend most of my waking hours in obedience to Matthew 25:36c, I was in prison, and you visited me. Faith has given me the courage and support to step out into the unknown, and the guidance to know where I was going after all.
