Alpha and Omega is the men's fellowship group of Larchmont UMC. It is open to all Christian men. We meet on the second Thursday of each month, September through May. Our meeting consist of a short business segment, a devotional, dinner and a speaker-both spiritual and secular. We volunteer for outreach work in our church and community.
NEXT ALPHA & OMEGA MEN’S GROUP DINNER Our next meeting will be on Thursday, May 10th. Our after-dinner guest speaker is one of our own, the Rev. Mark Cannon. Mark will lead an interactive session about the ancient city of Dan. Dinner starts at 6:00 PM and our program ends at 7:30 PM. You do not have to be a member of Larchmont UMC. Come join us and bring a friend! Tickets for dinner and the program remain at $5 per person. Tickets will be on sale through Tuesday, April 10th. Advanced purchase is required.

Your Trustees have participated in two planning retreats during which we actively sought to align our activities with our LUMC Mission Statement. After we reviewed the current state of our facilities and grounds and discussing potential futures, we drafted a Trustee Vision describing what we believe our facilities will become in the next 3 or so years, along with Goals and Objectives to support attaining our Vision. We will use the Goals and Objectives to bound our decisions and actions as we move toward our Vision. To save space, only our Vision and Goals are listed below. You can download the entire document from the attachment box below. We ask for your feedback and would appreciate any suggested actions that will help meet our Goals and Objectives and attain our Vision. Trustee Vision: Larchmont United Methodist Church is inviting, well maintained, and optimally managed, thereby enabling our facilities to be tools continually adapting for ministry and evangelism. Goal 1: Stewardship. Become better stewards of God’s gifts to Larchmont United Methodist Church. Goal 2: Growth. Develop LUMC into a more welcoming and useful facility for ministry and evangelism. Goal 3: Communication. Nurture continual two-way communications with our church family and community. New Trustee Policies The first of several changes to the way your Trustees do business will begin March 1st. We will shift how your Board of Trustees responds to church family and facility needs, from a Trustee of the Month concept to Trustee Areas of Responsibility. What does this mean to you? It means you will not have to guess who to call with a question, recommendation, or repair need for some area under Trustee responsibility; rather, you will know which Trustee to contact, since the one Trustee will oversee each area for an entire year. Here's the list. Church/Ed Wing maintenance-Harry Baylor (286-2730) and Gary Chiaverotti (623-4950) Church Kitchen-Gary Chiaverotti (623-4950) Church/Ed Wing grounds (including Memorial Garden)-Melinda Glaubke (650-2381) Parsonage/Associate Pastor's house-Milly Peter (305-528-5599) Rental house-Mike Crockett (622-5890) Other changes. Your Trustees will post minutes from their monthly meetings here, on the LUMC website. Minutes from our February and March meetings are posted below. We intend to post our draft agenda approximately one week before our meetings-normally held on the second Monday of each month-in order to allow our church family to provide input on any subject scheduled or to suggest topics to discuss. More information on these and other changes, designed to increase transparency and encourage two-way communication, will be posted on this website and weekly bulletins.
