A Time Set Apart for Rebirth, Recycling, and Spiritual Revival with Pastor Mary John Dye.  We will be having services each evening at 6:30 (we will start at 6 on Sunday with Jazz from the Dave Shelton Trio), and lunchtime Bible Studies on Monday and Tuesdays at noon.  There will be fantastic music from our GNN praise team, from the jazz trio, and from the rich talent pool here at First Church, and worship should be energized and exciting.  Reverend Mary John Dye (daughter of our own Rev. Jim Shepherd) is currently serving as a District Superintendent in the Western North Carolina conference of the UMC, and we look forward to her leadership duirng this time of revival in our church.

Bishop Davis to Preach at First Church

 
On the 12th of October our new Episcopal leader, Bishop Lindsey Davis, will be preaching here at all three morning services at First church in Frankfort.  After 12 years of serving in the North Georgia Conference of the UMC, Bishop Davis has been appointed here in Kentucky, where he and his family lived and successfully served the church before his election as a bishop in 1996.  Bishop Davis will be installed on the 18th of October here in Frankfort at our Convention Center, and many of our church staff and laypeople will be involved in that event as well.  We welcome Bishop Davis, and are very pleased to be having him involved in worship with us on this day.
