UMM-United Methodist Men will be starting up their meetings again and will be held the third (3) Sunday of the month at 12:30 right after the fellowship luncheon. Hopefully this time and day change will make it easier for more men to attend. All Men of the Church are welcome. Moving Forward is a support group of women here at the church that have lost their husbands. We come together once a month to socialize, do church crafts and even go on field trips. It’s nice to have company and enjoy a day out. Please consider joining our group. The next meeting is Monday, Sept 7 at 11:00. Please bring a bag lunch and meet in Fellowship Hall. Contact Linda Hughes with any questions. UMW—United Methodist Women are asking all Women of the church to join their next meeting on Tuesday, September 15th at 10:00 am in the Library.

ADVENT CHALLENGE : WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT

Last year's challenge was incredibly successful and so many lives were touched by this act

of generosity, the leadership of the church wanted to do it again this year. Once again

our goal between now and Christmas Eve is to raise $5,250.00 to be split between Stop

Hunger Now and Local Outreach Missions. Of our goal, $2,900 will go to our global

charity, Stop Hunger Now, as we strive to host another meal packaging event to help

those children around the world that are suffering from malnourishment. The other

$2,350 will go to local outreach missions; such as Church Has Left the Building and Open

Arms Village at St. Marks

* Our Goal $ 5,250.00 *

Please prayerfully consider how you might give, above and beyond your normal giving, to support

this challenge so we may reach out and share the love of Christ with other people.

S.O.S. (Sisters of Soul) Attention All Ladies you are invited to join us the 3rd Sunday of

each month, at 12:30 in Fellowship Hall after our lunch. The organizations our group supports are

PACE Center for Girls, Kimberly’s Cottage, Kids Central, Veterans Home in Ft. McCoy and

Homeless Children & Youth Project (with the Marion County Public Schools). UPCOMING

PROJECTS: During the month of September we will be collecting Back to School Supplies. In

October, November and December items for a Kitchen Shower will be collected to support Kids

Central and those teenagers that are leaving the system and entering a home.

Cancer Survivor Support Group is meeting on the second Thursday of each month at

7:00 pm in the Church Library. Meetings are open to anyone, especially the recently diagnosed

and spouses, partners or others involved in the support system of cancer patients. Contact Bob

Hisey with any questions.
