SUMMER BEACH SERVICE

Cape May United Methodist Church presents:
SUMMER BEACH SERVICE

Our summer beach service has begun and will continue through Labor Day. It is held at 8 a.m. at the
Cove Pavilion, Beach Drive in Cape May. Volunteers are needed for setup, teardown and service, let the church office know if you can help.

Start your Sunday with song, scripture, and communion surrounded by the beauty of God's creation.

A limited number of benches are available.
We invite you to bring your own beach chair for comfortable seating on the sand.

All are welcome. Come as you are — and bring a friend!


Communion Offering
COMMUNION OFFERING
 

July's Communion Offering will go toward supporting The Branches Outreach in Rio Grande, a vital ministry serving individuals and families in need within our local community.

The Branches offers food, clothing, compassion, and practical support to those experiencing homelessness, poverty, or hardship—helping people find stability and renewed dignity.

Your gift to this special offering is more than a donation.
It serves as a beacon of hope—reflecting Christ’s love in action and embodying our shared values of compassion, justice, and service.

Together, we can extend care and kindness beyond our walls and into the lives of those who need it most.

Thank you for giving generously.
