UMM Day at the Ballpark
2025
The season has arrived! The Cardinals are playing exciting baseball despite predictions of doom & gloom. We are currently tied for 2nd place in the division with a 19-19 record. This year is once again a DAY game in June to avoid the hottest temperatures. The game date is Saturday, June 21, 2025 at 1:15 PM against the Cincinnati Reds. Seats are in the 3rd base loge 265 section with some shade and light breezes. Available seating is limited to 300 tickets this year so reserve your tickets early – pay later. Contact Rog Wooden at (314) 576-1124 or e-mail at [email protected].
We suggest that you encourage folks to think of this day as ministry by inviting a scout or friend to join you or buy a ticket for a scout that can’t afford the cost. If we know the donor’s name, we will pass it to the recipient.
This year the MO UMMen will match any May – June donations to Sleep in Heavenly Peace for beds for youth without one.
It’s a great time for a road trip! Tickets are available now. CLICK HERE for the order form. Reservations are on a first come first served basis, payment can come later. Make checks payable to Methodist Family Day and send to:

Every ministry is already doing meaningful work, but too often, only the direct participants see it. By capturing and sharing these moments, churches can increase engagement, inspire generosity, and change how the community perceives their mission. Here’s how to start sharing your story.

Do Your Church PCs Need An Upgrade?
Windows 10 support ends Oct. 2025 which means no more updates or security fixes for computers running that operating system.
If your church needs help determining if your computer can upgrade to Windows 11, GCFA has provided resources through UMC Technology Support to help you stay secure and up-to-date.
UMC Support can check your upgrade eligibility to determine if you can upgrade or if you need a new PC. If your PC is not eligible to upgrade, they offer deep discounts to help you save money.
