Adopt a family for Thanksgiving
The Missions Committee would like to assist and encourage the church body to adopt 10 families for Thanksgiving Dinner. We are asking for financial support in buying 10 Angel Food Thanksgiving boxes for these families. The Missions committee members will either de-liver or assist local public officials in distributing the boxes for this family holiday. Please see the poster in the narthex for progress with this church wide mission project!

Italian Dinner sponsored by UMYF
Nov. 29th @ Noon $10 per person and $2 for Kids! Vegetable, Seafood and Meat lasagnas, salad, garlic bread, and homemade desserts. Come fellowship over a great homemade meal and support the youth of our church as well. If you can’t stick around, we welcome to go orders.

Worship leaders needed
I am looking for people who are willing to participate in our Sunday worship services either in leading a children’s sermon or serving as liturgist/scripture reader. If you are willing or feel led to serve in either of these ways, please contact Amy Herrin.

Donations of Coats/Sweaters needed!
During the month of November, the UMW are asking for donations of "gently used" coats/sweaters for Community Care Fellowship, a ministry of The United Methodist Church.  They are also collecting reading glasses.  CCF provides the homeless and nearly homeless a safe place during the day, and gives them the necessary things we take for granted...shoes, clothing, showers, laundry facilities, as well as food and friendship. UMW will be collecting the pants in a box located in the foyer through the month of November. During a church service at the end of the month, we'll be praying that these clothes will help someone in need.   Thank you for your support of our mission projects. www.ccf-ministry.org  

Volleyball signups are in the hall on the bulletin board. Games are on Saturday evenings.

Pavilion Apple Tree is located in the hall. Please help by picking an apple and purchasing the needed materials. Thanks for your support!

Free Blood Pressure Screening
On the second Sunday of every month there will be a free screening from 9:30 to 10:45 AM (during Sunday School time).  (Due to a conflict, in October only the screening will be on the first Sunday, Oct. 4).  For more information or to schedule a time, contact Karen Brady.  You are also welcome to ask Karen health questions. 

FUEL Program  What is the FUEL program?
Our Fuel Program is ready to kick off for the 2009-2010 school year. We need your support. If you feel led to feel a child for the entire year the cost is $150. We also welcome any monetary or food donations (Pop Tarts, Juice Boxes, Tuna Pouches, and Apple Sauce Cups). If you would like more information please contact Daina Hunter at 746-3432. The first bagging will be held on August 4 @ 6:00pm. We could use your help preparing the bags.

Prayer Shawl Ministry meets on Saturday from 9 to noon in the Sunday School wing.  Come learn to knit, crochet or to refresh your talent, or to quilt or just to give moral support.  Yarn can be furnished if you notify Bonnie in advance.   Our little group is growing and we encourage those interested to come join the group.  Some folks like to create in the privacy of their home and that is fine...all prayer shawls are accepted, blessed, and given.
