Grace United Methodist Church Wautoma, WI

    On September 27, 2009, we gathered for a special worship service to celebrate 150 years of mission and ministry in the Wautoma area. Previous Pastors and various other visitors joined the congregation for the special day. The special outdoor worship celebration was led by Pastor George who entered on a horse, which recalled the days when preachers rode to the various churches under their care. Assistant to the Bishop Rev. Steve Polster gave a special sermon based on our theme "celebrating the past, embracing the present, and welcoming the future." Various music ministry groups and the puppet ministry team also helped lead in our worship. Following the service we enjoyed a meal and fellowship inside complete with the sharing of some memories by various parishioners and previous clergy.
