October 30 OCC Packing Party!

WUMC would love to have the youth of our congregation (with perhaps some assistance from their parents if possible) and our beautiful Browning residents to assist the children in packing boxes after church on the 30th.

The Boy Scout troop that meets in our building have also been invited to assist.



We would Love to kick off our Operation Christmas Child shoebox packing all working together to reach out to children all over the world. 

VOLUNTEER BELL RINGERS NEEDED!

Ring a bell.. help change a life!

It is time again for our annual participation in the

Salvation Army's Red Kettle Bell Ringing!

This year we have two dates as options for you:

Saturday, December 3 and Saturday, December 10 at the Waterville Kroger location. Times are one-hour slots (though you may take two) running from 1:00pm to 6:00pm. Grab a buddy (always more fun that way!) and sign up for a time that works for you!

Masks are at your own discretion, but we are still asked to stand 6 ft away from the kettle to allow people to deposit their donations comfortably., Bells, kettle, and sign are provided. Dress warmly as you will be standing in the Kroger lobby.

Sign-up sheet is posted in the Gathering Room, or you may call the church office to see if a time slot is open.

Thank you from the Missions Team!
