Purchase a beautiful poinsettia grown by Down Home Ranch! By ordering a poinsettia, you help to decorate the sanctuary for our Christmas Eve Candlelight Service. You may indicate if your plant is In Honor of or In Memory of a loved one.

You may take your poinsettia home after the Christmas Eve service or leave it at the church to be donated to area shut-ins.

Poinsettias will be $15 each.

Please include your payment with order form and return to the FUMC office or place in the offering plate.

Deadline date to order is Tuesday, December 17.

Challenge: Connect With Someone Different From You

This past Sunday, as part of breaking down the wall of division that we construct around ourselves, we were challenged to take a step toward reconciliation and connect with someone different from ourselves, whether theologically, politically, socially, economically, and so on. Checking in, how’s it going?

More Pumpkins On The Way!

9b81eab0-b518-474e-b4fd-4d0eb923695f
Have you visited the Pumpkin Patch lately? In case you haven’t, we’re looking pretty slim on the patch! Not that looking pretty or slim is a bad thing, but when it comes to being the awesome Pumpkin Patch that we are, we want to be well stocked.

We need your help! We have more pumpkins arriving this Saturday, 10/22, at 4:00 pm. We need helpers to unload about 350 pumpkins. No weebees. With enough help, it should only take 45 minutes.

Just when you think I’m done asking for your help. We also need your help with filling in to work this coming week.

Fun! Fun! Fun!
Workers Needed for Pumpkin Patch

Come enjoy the delight on the children’s faces, the love of the families as they find their perfect pumpkin, and the crisp fall air. All the while you help your church financially!

We have several slots we need to fill for the next week.

Please check your calendar and sign up to help by contacting Robin McKinley by email (robin62482@gmail.com) or phone 210-827-5880.
