When work and call merge, we call that vocation. Jesus’ first disciples were fishers, and when Jesus took them away from their nets, he called them to “fish for people”–asking them to take the work they were already doing and reframe it for their service to the kingdom.

The United Methodist Church, including College Park, practices open communion.
All are welcome to the Lord’s Table. You do not need to be a member of or any to
receive Communion. There are no age requirements – children are invited to take
Communion if the parents wish, and they need not have been confirmed. There
will be liturgy that is call and response, bread will be broken, grape juice shared to
all who wish to receive.
