Childcare is available most Sundays. If there is no staff available, families are welcome to stay in the sanctuary, use the Family Room on the far right of the sanctuary, or hang out in the Narthex. Both rooms have live audio connections, so you will still be able to hear our worship service.
Occasional technical issues or lack of volunteers may mean we cannot Livestream or Record Worship. If we are unable to livestream the service, we will let you know via Facebook as soon as we can.
Aldersgate UMC is committed to making our events accessible to everyone. If you require an accommodation or service to participate fully, please contact CJ by calling/texting 425-746-9800 or emailing at least 4 days before the event or service you would like to attend.

Scripture
“The truth of the matter is, whoever doesn’t enter the sheepfold through the gate but climbs in some other way is a thief and a robber. The one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep, the one for whom the keeper opens the gate. The sheep know the shepherd’s voice; and he leads them out. Having led them all out of the fold, the shepherd walks in front of them and they follow because they recognize the shepherd’s voice. They simply won’t follow strangers - they’ll flee from them because they don’t recognize the voice of strangers.”
“Even though Jesus used this metaphor with them, they didn’t grasp what he was trying to tell them. He therefore said to them again;
“The truth of the matter is, I am the sheep gate. All who came before me were thieves and marauders whom the sheep didn’t heed. I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be safe - you’ll go in and our and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy. I came that you might have life and have it to the full.
John 10:1-10 (Inclusive Bible)
