Local Ministry - THE ORCHARD ALLIANCE
The Orchard Alliance is a community partnership between members of Shelton United Methodist Church and other individuals in our community who care about making a positive impact in the face of climate change. We hope to serve as an entry point for people who want to learn about healing and sustaining the earth and our community.

You may notice the orchard as you approach the church, observing the many fruit trees, berry bushes, and pollinating plants. We invite you to visit the orchard and get ideas about what you could do in your yard, community patch, or business property.

For more information, visit Orchardalliance.org

Local Ministry - SCHOOL BACKPACKS
Church members collected school supplies to fill 40 backpacks for our young friends at La Iglesia de Dios. Pastor Kelly, our kids, and the congregation blessed the backpacks at the August 17 worship service.
