Lord's Acre Sale
For those friends who are planning on donating items to the Lord's Acre Sale indoor market, there will be plenty of tables set up to display all of
your great donations. Please price your items before bringing them to the church. This saves on time and lets our volunteers focus their efforts on other areas. Remember this is a market, not a silent auction, so please price your items
accordingly. We want our customers to feel that the items are affordable, while keeping in mind, this is our fall fundraiser.
Donated items may be brought to the church beginning Sunday, September 9th. There will be space clearly marked in the choir room for your donations. The choir room is located directly behind the kitchen. If you choose to bring your items later in the week, volunteers will be setting up on Thursday and Friday evenings after 5:00 and will be able to accept your items at that time. Again, please remember to price your items. If you have any questions about pricing, contact Brenda Swanson.
Donations of fresh, whole chickens are needed for our Chicken Noodle Soup lunch. Please bring your chickens to the church by Sunday, August 27th, mark it LAS and put it in the silver refrigerator in the kitchen. If you would prefer, in lieu of a chicken, you may make a monetary donation. Please make your check payable to SUMC and write LAS in the memo part of your check.
Sign-up sheets for volunteers and donations will be available in the church lobby this Sunday, August 20th.
If you have any questions, contact Brenda Swanson at 319-213-5804 or by email at
[email protected].
Thanks to all who have continued to support
our 70th Lord's Acre Sale.
Blessings to all!

Fall Grounds Clean Up
 Mark your calendars for Sunday,
August 27th, 4:30 p.m.! We need help with trimming and cleaning up the landscaping of the church and the parsonage. Last year we had a great group of volunteers and we were done in less than two hours. Please bring any tools you have for trimming and raking and join in on the "many hands make less work" theory! A sandwich meal will follow as a thank you from the trustees.

Wednesday Night Team Meals
 Help make disciples of Jesus, lead by example and show hospitality to all with a welcoming meal on a weekly basis. Wednesday night meals are prepared by teams of volunteers who will prepare a meal approximately once a month. The meal can be very simple. We need team leaders willing to organize a simple meal just once a month and workers willing to prepare, serve and clean up. Wednesday night meals start September 13th and end in May. If you would like more information or to volunteer, please contact Jolene Bowman or Carol Crisman.

Coordinating Our Building Use
Are you needing a place at the church for a committee meeting or event? Please note that ALL scheduling of the building's use must be cleared and scheduled through Julie in the church office. This is not a "permission" issue, but we do need this central location for keeping track of the building's activities (we are thankful to be able to host a growing number of Boy and Girl Scouts this year!). Just
drop an email or phone the office (848-7213), so there are no surprises. Thank you!
