SUMC Announcements

The United Methodist Women will meet Monday, October 18 at 6:00 p.m. in the Simpson room for a light supper followed by a business meeting and program. The program will be highlights from Assembly held in St. Louis, MO and the Cooperative School of Christian Mission held this summer at Grove City College.

Thank you to everyone who contributed in some way to another successful Rummage Sale. We collected $1,130.00 for local, national and international mission projects. Our last Rummage Sale of the year will be November 12 and 13 and we are extending the hours from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. both days. Please contact Pat Grossarth if you can help with the set-up or the sale.

Please remember that we cannot take television sets, computers, fax machines or large pieces of furniture as they do not sell. Please donate these items to another charity.

Once again we will be collecting items for Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes - small stuffed animals, notepads, pens, pencils, toothbrushes, mild bar soap, comb, washcloth and socks. We are also accepting donations of $7.00 per box for shipping.

Sunday, September 26th is the Fourth Sunday Food Pantry Collection. All donations of non-perishable food items are appreciated. Please place items in the grocery cart.

25 sets of 7 sponges each and 5 scrubbing pads each are needed. Please place your donations of these new items in the orange bucket in the back of the sanctuary. The Outreach Committee will combine donations to make the required sets. Monetary donations may be placed in the offering - please mark “cleaning kits” on the envelope or check.
