Mustard Seeds Calendar
With this Mustard Seeds Calendar we hope to inspire you and your community to join other creative and passionate people in living and celebrating our year in a new way.
The event on our new calendar are divided into three general categories:
- Religious Observances: Deeper exploration of the Christian Liturgical Calendar.
- Celebrations: Innovative ideas for communities, local churches and families to celebrate in fun, whimsical, life-affirming ways, involving food, creativity, sharing and engaging with others.
- Activism: Suggestions and information about how to engage in global and local justice and need.
This is not a personal, private calendar. Most of the ideas, suggestions and information are designed for community. So gather your family and friends and join us and the many others around the globe in experiencing the year in an alternative way.
This is a living calendar, by which we mean that it is open for new ideas all year round. Think of it as a studio or a canvas of playful experiments in truth and life-affirming practices. We invite you to send us your ideas throughout the year. We would like to expand this concept in the years to come, so contact us if you are interested in dreaming with us about the future of this project.

Our youth group at Pender United Methodist Church and all the UMC’s in our district observe World Vision’s 30 Hour Famine this year February 27-28. We will raise money to feed hungry children around the world, and will perform many acts of community service with youth groups around the Washington Area. Wouldn’t it be neat if the MSA community prayed and fasted with us???? Stop eating at 1:00 (or after lunch) on Friday, Feb 27. Fast for 30 hours. Login to World Vision to see how the rest of the world is doing with their 30 Hour Famine activities. Fast for 30 hours. Break the fast with Communion and then a simple dinner of rice, bread or soup. Change the world by changing yourself.
