Sign Up for Daily Inspirational Messages by Text

From the desk of Rev. Kayla Roosa

I’m starting a daily text thread that you can sign up for. It would be a quick daily text that you could join free of charge that would enable me to write a quick prayer, Bible Verse or quote that we can be praying/pondering together as a community of faith. It is set up so that if you reply, I am the only one who sees it and could be a way for you to directly share prayer requests with me.

I know not everyone texts, but this is something that is open to members of Clio Bethany UMC or the larger community.

A colleague that I was close to in Freeland who also received a call in another city did this and I loved getting them from him – it’s a tremendous blessing to see how a simple set of words are relevant in many settings. God speaks and the Spirit moves.

My guide for sending these messages will be between 9am-9pm. I’m going to strive to send daily messages, but a day may sneak by me here or there without one.

How to sign-up:

Open a text message on your cell phone, send it to 81010.

Then in the body, type @bumcdp

Follow the instructions it gives you.

You do need to claim a role as parent/student.

It is a free service – you do NOT need the app if you are prompted.

IF you respond to a message, the message goes directly to me only. I will respond when I am able.

No one can see your phone number, not even me.

Still not having success joining? Let us know…maybe another church member can connect with you and help you get set up! Or…maybe it’s a good reason for you to join me for Tea at 10 on Tuesday!

About Kayla Roosa

My ministry began leading Sunday School at Gordonville United Methodist Church as a Young Adult and assisting with Youth Group. I have served in different ministry roles both volunteer and paid from then until I went to seminary in 2014. My undergrad degree from Northwood University is in Banking, Finance and Management. Before going to seminary, I worked at Dow Chemical for a combined 8 years in the plant, where I was responsible for overseeing policies surrounding Document & Records management for the businesses I supported. I began Pastoral Ministry in November of 2015, serving a small congregation on the south side of Midland while I was still in seminary at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary. When I graduated in 2017, I was appointed July 1, 2017 to Freeland United Methodist Church. In 2022, I was appointed to the newly formed cooperative parish of Clio: Bethany UMC and Otisville UMC.
