Happening NOW
Here are some ways you can be involved at Haddonfield United Methodist this week.
Carry On The Flame // October Sermon Series
Through Sunday, November 2
The composer, Gustav Mahler wrote: “tradition is not the worship of the ashes, but the preservation of fire.” Living out and sharing faith in Jesus Christ should not cause us to look backward at what was and used to be, but onward to see how the flame that once burned brightly can continue to provide the light of hope and passion for years to come. Join us in November as we celebrate legacy and commit together to Carry on the Flame.
Carry On The Flame: Stewardship Campaign
“Tradition is not the worship of the ashes but the preservation of fire,” wrote composer Gustav Mahler—a reminder that our call is to keep the light of faith burning brightly. As we carry on the flame at Haddonfield UMC, your generosity helps nurture the next generation, grow our ministries, and share God’s love in our community. We invite you to prayerfully consider your 2026 pledge to help this light continue to shine. Pledge cards are available around the building, on the church app, or click the button below to fill out our digital pledge card.
