Still Here, Still Faithful by Sharon McPhee

Three generations of Grace   A Heritage of Harmony When I look back on my life, I see that the church has always been part of my story. It wasn't just something we did on Sundays; it was who we were. My mother was the organist at our church for fifty years. Fifty years—that still amazes me. She was quiet, steady, and faithful. She also taught music to fifth graders. In our house, if you could sing, you were in the choir. That was just how it worked. The Fullness of the Sanctuary When I was in high school, the choir loft was full. So many people sang that we had to sit up there for the whole service because there were no seats left in the pews. If you didn’t get to church early, you didn’t get a good seat. In those days, everybody went to church. It wasn’t unusual; it was life. My mother received a plaque for her fifty years of service. She retired in the late 1990s but kept playing almost until she passed away. Music was her gift, and she gave it wholeheartedly to God a...

It Is No Secret What God Can Do by Sharon Batchelder

My name is Sharon Batchelder, and I was born in Danforth, Maine. When I look back over my life, I see pain and hardship, but I also see the faithfulness of God. My story is not always easy to tell, but it is a testimony of how God has carried me, healed me, and given me hope.   Childhood and Early Struggles When I was only eight months old, my stepfather threw me down a flight of stairs. That fall left me with lasting damage. My whole right side was affected, almost as if I had a stroke. It took me sixteen years just to learn how to tie my own shoes. My stepfather was an alcoholic. He drank constantly, and with the drinking came anger, cruelty, and abuse. My mother had twelve children, though one died at birth. That left eleven of us growing up together, and life was not easy. My mother was afraid of my stepfather. I don’t know why she married him, but she did, and the fear never left her. He was a hard, cruel man. He abused us, and worse, he even harmed my older sister i...

My New Journey with you by Katie Lovett

7.13.25 Stetson Memorial UMC    Good morning, Stetson Memorial Church family. If you had told me just a few months ago that I'd be standing here, actively participating in church, perhaps even joining in church karaoke, I might not have believed you! For years, I would have found every excuse not to attend. I always felt a quiet tugging at my heart, a sense that there was something more, but I constantly ignored it. Sometimes it was because I didn't feel like I fit in, or I was simply embarrassed to admit how I truly felt. But today, with a humble heart, I share that I am genuinely embracing this journey. After some significant challenges in my life, God, in His grace, led me to find peace where I needed it most. I now feel a deep peace I longed for, the profound love of forgiveness I desperately needed, and for that, my heart is beyond thankful. I remember the profound love and bond I felt when I became a mother – a love unlike any other. I was raised in a Christian h...
