Members of an evangelistic team that just returned from Cuba were emotional as they took terns reporting to Chrisrt United Methodist Church their participation in Methodist services in the islands.
The tean distributed aspirin and other medicine and worked to repair a church building. Christ UMC has sent teams to Appalachia, Indian villages, areas hit by Katrina, and many others. Some of those who related experiences they had in Cuba said this differed in that they were inspired by the church services, where members attending would show their joy by dancing and jumping and shouting.
Methodist churches are growing in numbers and members, they said.
