Tyler Memorial United Methodist Church

You can see Becky Johnson's report on the 2009 West Ohio Annual Conference here .

The big freezer downstairs is rusting & getting in poor condition.  If anyone has an upright or chest type freezer, the church sure could use one.  Please contact the church if you can help us out in any way.  Thank you.

Summer is approaching and we will be needing people to help with special music for the summer Sundays. If you would be willing to share the gifts God has blessed you with, please let Kathy know.

Thanks in advance for generously sharing your talents in the ministry at Tyler Church.

Sunday, June 7, will begin our “One Room Sunday School” for children 4 years old through 5^th grade.  Please sign up for a Sunday or two of the summer to lead the class and give our faithful Sunday school teachers a break for the summer.  All materials will be furnished.  All you need is a love of children and a smile on your face.  The sign-up sheet will be located outside the sanctuary on the narthex bulletin board.  Adult classes will meet as usual.  Thanks!

A Prayer for July 4

   Almighty and ever-living God, we humbly praise you for the nation in which you have allowed us to live. We cherish its wonder and its beauty. We are thankful for its fruitful lands, its bountiful waters, its great resources and its unlimited opportunities.

   We thank you for our founding fathers and mothers, and for their foresight, special wisdom, and steadfast courage in establishing freedom and a lasting document of fairness.

   Stir up within each of us the will to be good stewards of all the blessings of the land we love.

Amen.

Old Glory

I’m just a bit of bunting dyed

In stripes of red and white.

My corner holds a field of blue

With stars to give it light.

Though winds may pull and tear at me

And sun my colors fade,

My spirit will remain as strong

As when I first was made.

My hist’ry is the hist’ry of

The land o’er which I fly.

Its freedom, pride, and power are

The things I signify.

I’ve been to all the battles that

My country’s brave have fought.

I’ve dwelt in all the schoolrooms where

The youngsters have been taught.

I watch you stand as I go by

With hat upon your heart.

You see in me a nation great

Of which you are a part.

Unfurled and floating on the breeze

In red and white and blue,

Your faith in home and fellow men

Is passing in review.
