Shining the Light of JesusShining the Light of Jesus

In the past, mariners relied on lighthouses to warn them of danger. By shining a light, lighthouse keepers could guide ships away from certain peril. In today’s dark world, nothing shines as brightly, or protects us like the love of Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” John 8:12

Today’s world creates an environment where we are more connected through technology than ever before, but at the same time feel more isolated from real, deep connections in our own lives. It’s easy to feel alone in the darkness and to believe that nothing you can do makes a difference. Nothing could be further from the truth. We are never alone, for God is always with us. In Psalm 18, David wrote, “For You light my lamp; The LORD my God illumines my darkness.”

Like the lighthouse down the street, St. George Island United Methodist Church seeks to shine the light of Christ by sharing his love in our community, state, and around the world. As a lighthouse servant church, we help people locally, nationally, and abroad through our missions.  We hope that you will join us in person or online as we seek to share God’s message of endless love and eternal hope.

 

Our Mission:
Share the light of Jesus and Embrace the Community to transform lives through the Holy Spirit to grow ministries and missions for all generations
for the Glory of God.
