Sermon Series - Lessons From the Tree
SERMON SERIES - LESSONS FROM THE APPLE TREE

Join us as Pastor Suzanne Goodwin leads us into a brand-new sermon series at Frankfort United Methodist Church: Lessons From the Apple Tree. Throughout Scripture, trees are powerful symbols of life, growth, and faith.

Together, we’ll explore what these timeless images can teach us about our relationship with God, how we are rooted in His Word, and how we can bear fruit in our daily lives. Join us each Sunday as we gather to reflect, grow, and be inspired by the life-giving truths found in God’s creation.

CPR Defibrillators
HOW TO USE A DEFIBRILLATOR

At Frankfort United Methodist Church, we've installed an automated external defibrillator (AED) outside the sanctuary.

Recognizing the vital importance of AED knowledge in emergencies, we're dedicated to equipping our community with life-saving skills.

To further our commitment to safety and well-being, we encourage everyone to familiarize themselves with AED operations.

As part of this effort, we've provided a helpful instructional video demonstrating proper usage.

Let's come together to empower each member with the knowledge to potentially save a life in times of need.

Your readiness could be the difference between tragedy and triumph in a critical moment.


Narcan boxes
NARCAN BOXES

The Narcan boxes are now in front of both our United Methodist Churches in Frankfort & Elberta! We're immensely grateful for the opportunity to extend a helping hand to our communities during times of need.

These Narcan boxes stand as a testament to our commitment to the health and well-being of all who call Frankfort and Elberta home.

Together, let's continue to support and care for one another, ensuring that everyone feels safe and supported in our shared journey.
