Aulne UMC will hold renewal services

Auline United Methodist Church will hold renewal services Oct. 26 — 28. Pastor Bryson Butts will lead the services. He is the lead pastor of GracePoint, a four-year-old United Methodist Church in Wichita that has seen explosive growth. He is a dynamic preacher who shares God’s timeless truth in a relevant manner and has a passion for the local church.

Bryson served at Mulvane United Methodist Church and Asbury United Methodist Church before starting GracePoint. He has conducted numerous summer camps, tent meetings, youth rallies, and renewal services.

A native of Mulvane, Bryson received a bachelor’s degree from Kansas State University, and a master of divinity and doctor of ministry degrees from Asbury Theological Seminary. Of particular interest to Bryson is church growth and renewal, which have been priorities in his ministry. His warmth and humor have brought him a wide audience. The Wichita church will break ground in 2009 for a $6.5 million facility. Average weekly attendance of GracePoint is 600.

Bryson is married to Susan and they have four-year-old triplets, Rachel, Samuel, and Megan.

Services will begin Sunday evening with a pizza meal at 5 p.m. for youth, ages fifth grade through college in fellowship hall.

Monday there will be a men’s breakfast at 6:30 a.m. and at 11:30 a.m. a ladies salad luncheon, both in fellowship hall.

Evening services for the three nights will begin at 7 p.m. Choruses and special music will be led by the praise band and a free-will offering will be taken each evening. Everyone is invited to attend.
