We are looking for volunteers to man the Operation Christmas Child booth and parade walkers for the Roche de Boeuf Festival in Waterville on

September 23rd.

There is a sign-up sheet on the Welcome Table or contact Anne Stevens if you'd like to help out!

We are also collecting candy donations for the parade. There is a blue bucket in the Gathering Space, near the entrance to the sanctuary, where you can drop your donations. You can also bring them to the church office during the week

(Tues-Fri, 9am-2pm.)

Deppen Family Donations

WUMC has the privilege to minister to a local family, Brian and Kami Deppen, who lost their home and two vehicles in the devastating fire. A special offering gives us the opportunity to bless a family in need. Please keep them and their son who lives with them in your prayers.

There is a bird house located next to the Welcome Table where you can leave your donations if you wish to do so.

Reminder: The Disciples Path

6-week class will be held weekly starting next Tuesday, September 19th at 6:30pm.

We had a total of 88 School Kits and 52 Health Kits which will be delivered this coming week to the local collection site. That is at least 10 more of each from our collection last year! Our congregation is very generous when it comes to Mission Projects! Thank you to everyone who donated and assisted!

September Mission Focus

Susie's Coats and Hannah's Socks

Our September Mission Focus is Susie’s Coats for Kids/Hannah’s Socks. This non-profit organization collects new coats, hats, scarves, gloves, mittens, and socks for needy children in the Toledo, NW Ohio and SE Michigan area. Many of the requests for items comes from schools in the area throughout the year. Since this is an ongoing project, we collect all year.

When you shop, what for these items on sale.

Remember, “Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me”

(Matthew 25:40)
