Our Faith In Action

DISMAS HOUSE

Janice and Carol fed the Dismas House in January. Carol made meatloaf and baked potatoes, and Janice made a toss salad, rolls, chocolate cake, squares and Oreos!!!  Thank you Janice and Carol. The guys at Dismas really appreciate the food that they get from all the groups and people that feed them Monday - Friday. I will do February and I’m sure my helpers Robin and Barbara will help. If you ever want to do a month, just let me know. We usually feed between 10 and 12 men. It is great to feel you are helping men that are trying to get back on their feet. - Gail 

WE NEED YOU

We are putting out a plea for help—who have ideas for some good fundraising for the church for 2025? We will continue our Pinning ceremonies and the Fair but we need some new inventive ideas to help us keep our bills paid. Talk to Gail ,or Robin, or the Pastor with your creative thoughts. UMM:  We are looking forward to see what you will do this year too!!!
