In the sermon Pastor Nadeem focuses on the story of prayer of two men, a tax collector and a Pharisee. A tax collector during Jesus time was seen as the worst sinner; he was the lowest of the low. On the other Pharisee was seen as the righteous of the righteous. Despite their social image, based on their prayer and how they presented themselves before God, Jesus declared that the bad guy, the sinner went home forgiven that day. The Pharisee, a spiritual elite on the other hand returned in the same condition he came. Pastor Nadeem talks about the importance of what we pray and how we present ourselves before God when we pray.

Our Beliefs
United Methodists profess the historic Christian faith in God, incarnate in Jesus Christ for our salvation and ever at work in human history in the Holy Spirit. Living in a covenant of grace under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, we participate in the first fruits of God's coming reign and pray in hope for its full realization on earth as in heaven.
Our History
We began as a society under the Methodist Protestant Church. The society included the counties of Amelia, Nottoway, and Dinwiddie and was established in 1827 on land a few miles from its present location. The members quickly outgrew the building and in 1845 the new building was dedicated. The building was then moved in 1872.
Prayer Request
Please contact us at the church office to notify us of any prayer requests. Our father in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Lord, let the light of Jesus Christ, Your Son, be visible in the way I respond to all I encounter. For it is my faith and attitude that can help or hinder leading one to Christ to be saved. In Jesus’ name, Amen!!

Our Afghan friends are all expected to leave Fort Pickett by Spring, if not before. Such a wonderful job has been done with collection drives that the post has enough general items/clothes to last until our Afghan friends have left. Thank you for your generosity.
