Reaffirmation of Marriage Celebration
On Sunday February 15th, 2009 Aldersgate UMC celebrated the institution of marriage by holding a "Reaffirmation of the Wedding Covenant" ceremony during both services.
A Valentines Day themed covered dish meal was held after the second service, with a wedding cake for dessert.
Entertainment was provided in the form of two trivia challenges based on marriage facts from church members.
