Reaching out

Morrison UMC welcomed Bishop Jimmy Nunn on Sept. 11 to give his first Sunday morning sermon as bishop and to consecrate the new building that houses the United Methodist Women’s community thrift store. The bishop’s message was "What’s in Your Closet?"; more than 100 people attended. Another mission of the church in the town north of Stillwater is the Funny Farm, Friday evening programming for youths.
