New Adult Bible Study! Register by Feb. 16th

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new opportunity for spiritual growth and fellowship in our church community. Starting March 2025, we will launch a 13-week Adult Bible Study, open to all adults who are eager to dive deeper into God’s Word.

When: Every Sunday evening, starting March 2025, at 6:30pm

Where: TBA

Duration: 13 weeks

This study is designed to provide:

• In-Depth Scripture Exploration: Engage with key biblical passages that will deepen your understanding of God’s Word and its application to your daily life.

• Practical Life Application: Learn how to navigate life’s challenges through the lens of Scripture.

• Community and Fellowship: Connect with fellow believers in an atmosphere of mutual support, encouragement, and prayer.

• Accessible to All Levels: Whether you’re new to Bible study or have years of experience, this study is tailored for everyone.

Our goal is to strengthen our spiritual foundation as individuals and as a church body. Through these 13 weeks, we will grow together, encourage one another, and equip ourselves to better fulfill the Great Commission.

To ensure materials are prepared for everyone, we kindly ask that you register by February 16, 2025.
Sign-up sheets will be available at the information table, or you can register by contacting the church office. Questions? Please reach out to Dave Pinkerman.

Let’s journey together through Scripture and experience God’s transformative power in our lives and our church. We can’t wait to see you there!

Cancellation Policy

Marion Salem Church will have worship on Sundays regardless of weather so long

as Pastor can cross parking lot to get into building. If you cannot make it safely and

have a portion of leadership in service, please let Pastor know and we will move to

a backup plan. Service can always be found streamed on Facebook.

All other activities such as Sunday school, youth group, choir practice, and other

meetings will be determined by their respective leaders. Communication will go

through their rosters.

Salem Card Exchange

Throughout December we will have tables in the crossover to the Family Center for you to place Christmas Cards. 

Please only place cards for those who attend Salem or are shut-ins from Salem. 

Please help restock the Food Pantry

Each month we serve between 6 to 10 families in our community through our food pantry. 

During the month of December, we will be restocking food supplies through a reverse advent giving. 

We are encouraging families to add one food item each day to a grocery bag and bring the bag to Sunday service at the end of each week to fill up our big Christmas box in the back of the sanctuary. 

Our Food Pantry is open Monday 10am to Noon.

The Christmas Promise

The children of Marion Salem will be presenting their version of  The Christmas Promise on Sunday, December 15 during the morning service.

There will be worship, special music, the children’s bell choir and more.

Come and enjoy watching the children give their best to Jesus!

Boxes can be picked up in back of sanctuary or you may pack a wrapped shoebox of your own. Brochures explaining the program and suggestions for items to be packed can be picked up by the boxes too. Deadline for boxes to be returned is Sunday, November 17th.

All Saints Sunday

We will be observing All Saints Sunday on Sun. Nov. 3rd. All members who have passed in the last year will be recognized. In addition, anyone who has lost a loved one since November 1st last year is welcome to send name, date of passing, and a picture to Pastor Jason to include in the memorial during worship that day.

Youth Group Looking for Leader

Salem Strivers, our youth group, is looking for a mature disciple of Christ who will help lead their meetings on a weekly basis. Please pray for and help us find this person by sharing it word of mouth.
