The Board of Stewards met for the April meeting amidst the promising news of vaccine rollouts and declining COVID-19 numbers. We praise all healthcare and other essential workers for their dedication to service. Each week, we see more worship attendance and campus activities. Online worship and spiritual events continue to be a strength to those attending.

This past year has been an on-going test of faith for many of us. It truly has been a wild and strange roller coaster ride, and I am sure that most of us are ready for this ride to be over! I don’t know about you, but I am longing for some sense of normalcy that doesn’t involve masks or social distancing. However, until that day arrives, we must continue to do all that we can to keep ourselves and others safe. We must continue to express our love for God by loving others.

I would like to introduce you to two new members of our church. Priscilla and John MacDougall recently moved to San Antonio from Minnesota, where they both served as pastors in the United Methodist Church. They want to offer our church their gift of service.

Tuesday night Alamo Heights United Methodist Church partnered with The Foundry to worship and build community with over 65 young adults in the San Antonio area.
