Are you an unpaid servant at Light on the Hill? If so, we have a new T-shirt for you! Contact Beth to get yours AND wear it to worship on Sunday morning, June 4 at KFUMC. We will be sharing stories of transformation from LOTH!
Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers, grandmothers, sisters, aunts, cousins and friends who have loved and cared for us so well over the years! We celebrate each of these strong and loving women and we remember the blessings each brought to our lives!
Come Join Us for Mega Monday at Light on the Hill! Volunteers please arrive at 8:30am. You will be blessed to be a blessing! Community Health Worker, Lori Payne, Project Manager, Millie Goode, and Community Health Worker, Emily Morales. Light on the Hill is excited to announce that we have received the Methodist Healthcare Ministries Community Impact Grant for 2023! This grant will allow us to expand our outreach efforts to our community by funding support staffing and program expenses for ongoing food relief and community connections to help people with their physical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual needs. This funding will provide for a project manager to oversee the initiative and allows us to hire two part-time community health workers to be the boots on the ground serving our community. Millie Goode will serve as the project manager and Emily Morales and Lori Payne will serve as our community health workers. We are so grateful and excited for all who will benefit from this amazing expansion to our efforts to serve our neighbor! Thank you MHM!!! Kerrville First United Methodist Church’s Food4Kids program provides food on the weekends for children experiencing food insecurity from our neighboring school, Nimitz Elementary. Other churches in our community have also adopted local schools in our county to be a blessing! KFUMC is currently helping almost 60 students and their families who do not have enough nutritious food to sustain them throughout the weekends. Many families depend on breakfast and lunch for their children at school and when school is not in session, like on weekends, it provides a hardship for the family. Our awesome unpaid servants help with the shopping, packing, delivering and distributing of the food to make this program possible. Food4Kids is a food relief ministry connected with our Mustard Seed Pantry. Thank you for supporting Food4Kids! Thank you to Bryant Williams for his generous gift of a golf cart to our outreach ministry! This will help with providing accessibility for our neighbors with mobility challenges to all of our outreach ministries.
Please join us as we pray for our Liberia Mission Team who are there serving alongside the local Methodist Church. May God bless them and protect them!

Some of us have big buts (the one “t” variety, not the other kind). By that, I mean we live in constant emotional and relational tension because we live in the land of but.
• I know my BFF didn’t mean to be a jerk, but … • I know my spouse isn’t perfect, but … • I know my son is trying to change, but … • I know my boss didn’t mean to wound me, but … Sadly, we’ve created a “yeah, but” world that is killing us. It’s robbing us of joy and creating unnecessary tension in our relationships. Worst of all, it’s setting us up to love conditionally. The second we add a “but,” we add a condition or an excuse. We are saying to others, “I know the right thing to do, but my choice to do the right thing is subject to your choice to do the right thing.” We rationalize our half-hearted love and acceptance of others based on their actions. |
