• RUMC SERVICES REMAIN VIRTUAL AT A NEW TIME

  To all our members and friends: Pastor Lim has announced that RUMC Sunday services will start at a new time, 11:00 am,  and will remain virtual over ZOOM until further notice. We will not resume in-church worship services at this time for the safety and peace of mind for all members. Please be sure in your everyday activities to observe good hygiene with regular handwashing, practice social distancing, and kindly wear a mask to protect both yourself and others. Please pray for those who are sick with the virus, for their families, for the medical and emergency professionals providing care, for those who have lost their jobs, and for all who suffer as a result of this pandemic. Be kind. Treat others as you would be treated. Help one another. Trust in God.
