Music Appreciation Luncheon December 11

The United Women in Faith are hosting a Music Appreciation Luncheon for our Bethlehem musicians immediately following worship at 12:00 pm on Sunday, December 11. This annual event is one way we say THANK YOU to our choir and band for sharing their musical talents with us throughout the year.

Your help is welcome! If you are able to contribute a side salad, rolls, or a dessert, please email Lynda Imirie.

The Warming Shelter of Franklin County is a community outreach team effort led by the partnership of Lake Christian Ministries and Redwood UMC to serve people in our area that are experiencing homelessness. This year, the shelter opens on December 1 because of the cold weather. If you would like to help, refer to the website for information on volunteering (overnight or dinners) or providing needed consumable donations. If you have any questions or want to learn more, email Susan Hughes. Thanks for your support of this important ministry to those in great need!
