Note from Pastor Evangeline:
"I share the sentiment of the Apostle Paul when he said, "I am the least of the Apostle's, unfit to be called an Apostle (1 Corinthians 15:9) but I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me because He judged me faithful and appointed me to His service. I know and I admit that I am not worthy but God called me and made me qualified to this awesome and wonderful ministry. I am blessed, I am honored, I am highly favored! to be part of building up God's Kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven. Finally, I cordially invite you to Mayville United Methodist Church. Come, see and taste the amazing GRACE and LOVE of our Almighty God!"
