Joy and Sorrow

As we ring in this New Year, we also celebrate the life and legacy of Mrs. Helen Napier who sadly passed on January 2nd, 2024. Mrs. Helen has been a pillar for Broadmeadow almost since the church’s founding. Though she wasn’t a charter member, she liked to say she was “here since the first pastor." For more details about her remarkable century of life, click the blue button below. You can also watch the recorded live-stream of her celebration of life from January 6th, 2024.

Fondren Fright Night

Thank you to everyone who helped make Saturday such a big day for us!

We painted pumpkins with HRC Mississippi, fellowshipped with The TRANS Program with a meal provided by our own United Women in Faith, and joined with the Fondren North Neighborhood Association to welcome 1,500+ members of our community for trick-or-treating and other Halloween fun!

We're so thankful we can love our Jackson neighbors through service and action, continuing the long Wesleyan tradition doing “all the good we can, for all the people we can, as long as we ever can.”

A Time For Grief

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we must announce the passing of Mrs. June Crellin, just a month shy of her 101st birthday. For decades Mrs. June has been a faithful member at Broadmeadow and one of our dearest friends. There will be an informal gathering at her home this Friday, Oct. 6 at 2:00pm to celebrate her life and the legacy she leaves behind.

Fellowship and Celebration

We had a great time of fellowship together today at our potluck and it was such a blessing to be able to celebrate Helen Napier’s 100th Birthday, as well! Helen has been a pillar of Broadmeadow’s community for many years and we hope that we can celebrate her for many more years to come!

Farewell Celebrations

Pictured here are images from Pastor Lance’s farewell dinner and from our last Theology on Tap gathering with Lance. While we could not be happier for Lance as he starts this new chapter in Virginia, we’ll miss having him here at Broadmeadow. We’re so thankful for all that he’s done for this church over the years. From leading us through the choice to become the first LGBTQ+ affirming United Methodist Congregation in the state of Mississippi to overseeing us through a global pandemic, Lance has truly been with this church through thick and thin. We wish him nothing but the best in his new adventures!
