MARK YOUR CALENDERS, OCTOBER 16th is our NUMC CRAFT
Summer is a great time to get a head start on making crafts for our craft booth and creating $25 theme baskets.
Baking this summer, why not freeze some for the bake sale booth and cookie booth.
If you have any baskets that are in good shape or any NEW odd and end items that can be incorporated into the theme baskets, please give them to Susan James, Pam Powers or leave the items in the church office labeled for theme basket booth.
Craft booth donations can be left in the office as well.
Please sign up to visit a local business for a donation to the silent auction booth. Sign up sheets will be displayed before and after church.
In the coming weeks committees will be hearing more about Stephen Ministry and how it is being implemented at the Newtown United Methodist Church (NUMC).
The PBS “Religion and Ethics” news show recently aired an eight-minute feature that vividly describes how Stephen Ministry is changing lives in thousands of congregations.
You can watch the video online on the PBS Web site:
Harvey Sellner, a member of our congregation founded World Help Foundation in 1995. WHF’s vision is to see a significant increase in access to clean water and sanitation facilities in rural areas around the world, sustaining life and dramatically improving health. In order to realize this vision, WHF’s mission is to prevent death and disease by providing safe water, improved sanitation and hygiene education through public education and developmental and relief programs.
