Our thoughts and prayers are with Salem Methodist in Reidsville, North Carolina and St. John Methodist in Eden, North Carolina.  They are two fine congregations.  Pastor Hout (Mike the father) knows because he has visited Pastor Hout (Joe the son) and these congregations on several occasions, most recently on the last Sunday in May.  Pastor Joe Hout is happy you have found this and sends out a big “Hello”€� and “Happy Fall”€� to all who are reading this.  The younger Hout loves people and loves sharing the good news.  He also loves to sing and play guitar.  He has done a lot to connect with the local neighborhood by visiting people and even having a juggling class.  Now he has a new set of chimes and is sharing them with his congregations and his community. They would love for you to visit them and join them in a worship service.  Salem meets at 9:15 and St. John has worship at 11:00.  Salem UM is at 2020 Wentworth Street in Reidsville and St. John UM is at 1112 Center Church Rd. in Eden.
