Easter Flowers
to Honor or Memorialize Your Loved Ones
|
We invite you to purchase colorful potted Easter Begonias through the church. Please complete a form, found throughout the church, to purchase flowers or make a donation in memory or in honor of a loved one. Return your completed forms and payment to the church office during business hours or put it in Sunday's offering plate.
The cost is $15 each and the deadline is Wednesday, April 17 at Wednesday Night Supper.
NOTE: Only the first 25 flower orders will receive a begonia to take home, however, any orders after that WILL be included on the dedication list.

O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his steadfast love endures forever!
Psalm 118:1

Come hear the Carillon Handbell Choir in Worship this week.
The
Carillon
Handbell Choir will be providing a portion of the music in worship this Sunday. In addition to our handbells, we will also be ringing hand chimes.
We give special thanks to St Paul’s Episcopal Church in Newnan that has generously shared their chimes with us for this Sunday.
We hope that our congregation enjoys hearing the chimes as much as we have enjoyed playing them.

(An updated tenth anniversary edition was just released in December 2018.) In 2014, Bill helped to found AIM Sports Reputation Management, a sports-related crisis communications company. He currently serves as its CEO. Bill is married to the former Carolyn Newton, a graduate of Agnes Scott College who earned her master’s degree and Ph.D. from Georgia State.

UMW Spring Fashion Show and Tea

Check out the story about our own Senoia United Methodist Women Spring Fashion Show and Tea at the historic Veranda.
Darling Divas and Tribal Chick, boutique stores in Peachtree City and Fayetteville, provided clothing and jewelry for members of UMWG to model at the event.
The proceeds from the event will benefit I-58 Mission in Senoia and funds within the LaGrange District of United Methodist Churches.
Many thanks to all of our UMW members and their guests for making this such a success. Special thanks to Martha Sanford and Laura Reynolds for coordinating the logistics so seamlessly.
