- Over three plus years ago, Lake Merritt UMC invited CCUMC to partner in the Food Pantry Ministry. CCUMC enthusiastically responded. The experience of serving has enriched each of our spirits. However, it has become apparent that participation has decreased among our members. Through prayer, discussion and discernment, CCUMC has decided to relinquish our partnership. We encourage those who wish to continue to participate to do so. No sign up is necessary. Just inform Leslie Christopher, Coordinator, at lgallaway@aol.com. Please continue to hold the Food Pantry Ministry in prayer as LMUMC continue this vital ministry.
Dear Ones ~
Our Kumi Mission Team is busily preparing for their upcoming trip. We, as the Home Team, can support them in many creative ways. Listed below are a few projects that need many hands to complete.
If you have a little bit of time after worship and fellowship hour, we would greatly appreciate your helping hands. We will be working to complete these projects in the next three Sundays.
1 - Collect cardboard egg cartons (not plastic) for planting seeds. We need many, many of them. Bring them to church and give to me.
2 - Someone to transfer videos to DVD and copy DVD for educational lessons. (There are approximately a dozen of these).
3 - Sort, label and organize the various children's books for the school library.
4 - Ask your dentist for a donation of toothbrushes. We need as many of them as possibly available, but do not need tooth paste. Bring them to church and give them to me.
5 - If you have the gift of printing neatly by hand, we need Helping Hands to print 550 names on a rainbow banner. See Becky for this project.
6 - Assemble mini-slate boards, glue 12" by 12" pieces of cardboard with slatelike material for use as a chalkboard.
Thank you for being a part of the Home Team. -Burt, Home Team Coordinator
