Matthew 16:36-38 And He
took the seven loaves and the fishes and gave thanks, and brake them, and gave to his
disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. And they did all eat, and were
filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.
And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
“Loaves & Fishes” is a ministry
for the shut-ins at NBC Church and the surrounding community. Each Thursday
plate lunches are delivered to homes of the shut-ins as an outreach of our Senior
Ministries program. For more information contact Dean Richards at 256 931-5411.

Ministries M & M Ministries
In every church the most precious and valuable resource we have is our members. In our own
church family we are richly blessed with many senior adults. It is your work and devotion
that laid the foundation enabling us to be where we are today. We owe you a debt of
gratitude that can never fully be repaid.
So it is with
thankfulness and great joy that New Brashiers Chapel United Methodist Church offers you this
new Senior Adult Ministries Program. Faye Perry and Ruby Neal will be working to resource,
facilitate and plan ministries for you and with you. We at NBC have a deep affection for and
appreciation of senior adults. Please join us as we embrace this ministry together.
The
M & M Ministries (Mature Moments)
The Senior Adult Ministries at NBC will be known as the M & M’s. We are a diverse group
of people, age 55 and older, who enjoy people! Join the M & M’s and enjoy Christian
fellowship as we gather together. For more information about the Senior Ministry
program, contact Faye Perry at 586-5713.
