Annual Celebration
§
Gather
Friday night for an evening of Christian fun and fellowship. Learn about the online community and/or
prayer shawl ministry.
§
Attend
Saturday’s gathering to hear an inspirational speaker and worship that will
allow God to speak to you in a myriad of ways.
§
Consider
providing childcare for another woman who might benefit from the weekend if you
do not like to sleep in a strange bed or travel long distances.
Bring Bucks for Buckets to the Annual Celebration to support the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR)!
Read about UMCOR’s urgent need for flood buckets. UMCOR used more flood buckets during the
Midwest spring floods this year than they did in all relief efforts in 2007.
Since flood buckets are difficult to ship, bring a financial contribution in cash or checks
made payable to East Ohio United Methodist Women.
East Ohio UMW will
forward the funds to UMCOR to replenish the supply of flood buckets.
