First Sunday of Advent – November 28, 2021
Close to Home – Advent at Parkwood United Methodist Church.
It’s about when things happen to us close to home, we feel them and experience them deeply. Advent is about waiting and preparing ourselves for a God who comes very close to home, wanting to come into our homes and into our hearts, which is good news for everyone.
Worship with Parkwood United Methodist Church, Sunday November 28 at 11:00 am. We will gather in person in our sanctuary. We are continuing to wear masks and practice social distancing.
We hope you can join us for in person worship but if you are unable to do so, please consider tuning into our livestream. It will be available here as well as on our Facebook page.

We are still collecting cereal, peanut butter, and men’s clothing items (especially medium size). We are not collecting socks or t-shirts. If you happen to be at the grocery store, I invite you to consider picking up an extra jar of peanut butter or box of cereal to bring to church. Also (men), if you have clothes that you haven’t worn in the last year, we invite you to consider donating them to the Urban Ministry clothes closet by bringing them to church.
