Flood Buckets and Shoeboxes!

A Big Thank You to all who helped participate in missions and outreach the last couple of months. You completed 13 flood buckets to send to our sisters and brothers in need all over the country. They came at a much needed time. The youth have already taken them to the United Methodist Mission Resource Center to be shipped out. You also collected 7 shoeboxes for the United Methodist Mission, Project Agape. Those Christmas gifts will be shipped out this week and sent to our friends in Armenia!

If you wish to add a name to the Prayer Connection, please fill out a card in the pew pocket and put in the offering plate. You may also call the church office or email your prayer requests to Rev. Susan at revheafheun@gmail.com. Prayer requests will remain on the connection for three weeks and then be rotated off to allow new prayers to be shared.

Join others on Sunday morning at 8:55am for prayer in the Prayer Room. You are invited to join in prayer every evening at 9:00pm as we pause to pray for those serving in the military and for a quick end to war.
