Boy Scout Troop

Scouts BSA Troop 181 held its annual recruiting campout at BUMC on October 8-9. The weather was chilly but clear and Scouts and guests enjoyed archery, a barbecue, and tent camping on the grass. All had a great time and appreciated BUMC’s wonderful grounds and gracious church hosts. The Scouts were also glad to practice “A Scout is Helpful” earlier that week by assisting with setup for the church’s Fall Fest sale.

At the weekly meetings this month the Scouts are checking over their camping supplies, practicing first aid, and preparing for a visit to Hawk Mountain Scout Reservation.

If you have boys ages 11-17 who are interested in Scouts, please visit us in Schieck Hall the first Tuesday of each month at 7pm or email [email protected].

Living With Purpose: Beyond Fleeting Happiness

Published: July 16, 2024

In a culture that often prioritizes instant gratification and personal happiness, we are challenged to seek a deeper, more purposeful way of living. Our society's focus on immediate pleasure, even within religious circles through the "prosperity gospel," overlooks the true, lasting fulfillment found in aligning with God's will. The story of Lazarus illustrates this principle, demonstrating that temporary delays can reveal greater purposes. As a church community, we are called to make Christ known by prioritizing service, building genuine relationships, and sharing hope. Embracing this purposeful approach leads to deeper satisfaction and a lasting impact.
