Senoia Memorial Day Parade and Festivities
|
Volunteers - YOU - will be passing out hand fans and doing children’s ’tattoos’ at the Memorial Day Remembrance & Festival tomorrow, May 27. Home base for Senoia UMC will be in front of City Hall. We will start the tattoos and fan hand out at 10:30. Please come on by if you would like to help.
The parade begins at 2 p.m. and will feature our own folks on a decorated golf cart or two. Contact Ashley if you would like to ride so we can have enough seats.
Let’s all show our support!
Please either sign up or let Jon Morris know you will be there to help with the fans and tatoos.

June's Book for
Read It & Reap
|
We had a nice discussion about our last book,
The Invention of Wings
, but now on to the next one!
The Paris Wife
by Paula McClain, is about Ernest Hemingway's wife and their life together in Paris. Although it's a work of fiction it has historical details about Ernest included in it. You can get it through Amazon for under $10.00 or at the library, Kindle, or on audible books.
Have friends that would like to join in? Bring them with you!
Our meeting date will change for June, to the 4th Monday night, due to VBS taking place in the church during the 3rd week. So, I'll see you on Monday,
June 24, at 7:00
in the JOY Room. But hopefully I'll see you all before then at other places! Barb
