OUR MINISTRIES
Our Tractor Blessing Story: Standing next to big farm machinery, Pastor Nancy Blade called upon God’s protection for our farmers in the 2020 harvest season. On September 19 Kaneville United Methodist Church fed those who feed the world with spiritual food, wrapped breakfast items, and a goody bag decorated by the Kaneville Child Care Center kids. It’s the first year of a new tradition for the church, which prides itself in having 50 years of outdoor summer worship and a Palm Sunday car parade earlier in the pandemic. “It’s most important that our farm families feel supported by their community and receive a just wage for their hard labor,” Pastor Blade told the Kane County Chronicle. After the tractors were anointed with water on a sage bundle, Lay Leader Jim O’Connell offered a heartfelt prayer on behalf of the farmers.
Returning to In-person Ministry
Indoor worship will not be held after our leadership team has prepared the building. We are hoping to have the Sanctuary and basement ready for ministry use early in October. Instructions for how to enter and expectations will be posted when available.
