How to Stay Connected with Del Ray United Methodist Church

Updated

To stay connected with Del Ray United Methodist Church, sign up for its monthly newsletter on delrayumc.org. The newsletter is described on the site as offering "the most up to date information and upcoming dates," and signing up requires an email address. The same site also points to Sunday worship as a way to plug in, engage, and grow.

Signing Up for the Monthly Newsletter

The newsletter signup is the site's main connection tool. Here is what the process involves:

  1. Go to delrayumc.org and find the "Stay Connected to Del Ray UMC" section.
  2. Enter your email address in the signup field.
  3. Select "Sign Up" to submit your address.
  4. Expect a confirmation message — the site displays "Thank you!" after a signup is submitted.

The site notes that the signup form needs a storage option configured before it can collect addresses. If the form does not accept your submission, that is a site setup issue rather than a problem with your email address, and the newsletter may not be reachable through the form until it is fixed.

What the Newsletter Covers

According to the church, the monthly newsletter provides current information and upcoming dates. It is the site's stated channel for keeping up with what is happening at the church, so it is the right place to look for schedule changes and event announcements.

Other Ways to Connect

The site also highlights Sunday worship as a way to get involved. It lists two services:

Service Time Description
Monthly Family Worship 9:30am A fun, age-appropriate worship service for kids and their families
Traditional Worship 10:30am A service with hymns, a message, and communion

The site also mentions a "Fall Ministry Kick-Off" beginning September 6, when Sunday mornings will "look different," with something for everyone to plug in, engage, and grow. The newsletter is the best way to get the details on those changes as they are announced.

Common Snags

  • Form does not submit: The site itself flags that the newsletter block needs a storage location set up. If the form appears broken, check back later or contact the church directly.
  • No confirmation email described: The site only shows an on-page "Thank you!" message; it does not describe a confirmation email, so do not wait for one before assuming you are signed up.
  • Email address required: There is no alternate signup method listed on the site, so an email address is necessary to receive the newsletter.
