Mission Box 
The mission box this week supports the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) in response to the Southeastern Wildfires.  The wildfires in the southeastern United States have been threatening people, property, pets, and livestock for weeks. So many people have been affected by this horrible disaster. As we wait for more information about how we can best respond, we can support UMCOR as they are already helping to make a difference in these peoples lives.

On December 9 at 9:30am, the UMW will host Church Women United in the Chapel. The human rights program is "Experiencing Blessings at the Table." We hope you can attend. The meeting focus is a Human Rights Celebration. Jennifer Beagle, Director of Gainesville's Women's House of Hope, will be the keynote speaker.  This is an important time in our country to focus on human rights for all individuals.  We want to give CWU a warm Trinity welcome by our presence.

Please mark your donations for "Nursing Home Ministry" and bring them to the reception desk. For more information contact Dorothy Fillmore  or Jan Ordway.
