COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS NATIVITY
Help Bring the Christmas Story to Life!
EMC is beginning plans for a Community Christmas Nativity Event—a special experience for all ages that will invite our Englewood community to celebrate the story and wonder of Jesus’ birth.
Our vision includes a walk-through Nativity experience featuring displays of different Nativity scenes, with the possibility of a live Nativity as part of the event.
We’re still in the planning stages, and we need your creativity, ideas, and helping hands! Whether you enjoy decorating, organizing, building, welcoming guests, working behind the scenes, or simply want to help create something meaningful for our community, we’d love to have you join the team.

MEAL TRAIN MINISTRY
Caring Through a Meal
When someone in our church family is going through a time of need, a meal can be a simple but meaningful way to show Christ’s love. Our Meal Train Ministry provides short-term support through home-cooked meals or restaurant gift cards following a hospital stay, illness or surgery, the birth of a baby, or the death of a loved one.
Meal Trains are generally provided for two weeks or less and are limited to meal assistance within our delivery area. Each situation is unique, and availability may vary.
To request a Meal Train for yourself or someone in our church family, email mealtrain@englewoodmethodist.
Want to help care for others? We are also looking for people to join our Meal Train Ministry Team by occasionally providing a meal or restaurant gift card when a need arises. Email mealtrain@englewoodmethodist.
COMMUNITY EVENTS
Want to Get Out & Connect?
Join the Community Events Outreach Team! We’ll attend local community events representing Englewood Methodist Church, meeting and engaging with our neighbors, sharing what EMC is all about—and, most importantly, sharing the love of Jesus!
Come be part of the fun, make new connections, and pass out some great EMC swag along the way!
