Membership

Rev. Dr. Myra Bennett

Germantown United Methodist Church welcomed Rev. Dr. Myra Bennett into membership on Sunday, May 14 at our Prism worship service. Rev. Bennett is a retired United Methodist Minister in the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference and is placing her conference membership in affiliation with GUMC. Myra served 27 years at Methodist Healthcare as a board-certified Chaplain and licensed Pastoral Counselor, and three years in parish appointments. She has met several people at Prism that she knew during her earlier years of ministry, and it has been a joy-filled reunion.

Glenda and George Simpson

Germantown United Methodist Church welcomed Glenda and George Simpson into membership on Sunday, May 21, at our 11:00 traditional worship service. They joined by transfer of their membership from a sister United Methodist church in the Memphis area. Their Welcome Friends are the Douglas Family.

When asked what about Germantown UMC made them want to become a part of our church community, they replied, “Rev. Tim Carpenter’s sermons are inspirational and meaningful. Due to the upheaval surrounding the United Methodist Church, we felt it was time to find a church home with a unified pathway to truth and life.”
