NOVEMBER WORSHIP – Grateful, Thankful, Blessed: Rooted in Generosity
This November we will be exploring the life of 3 women in the Bible and how their giving helped begin the transformation of the world.  Join us as we learn from these saints of our tradition of how generous lives can allow us to be part of God’s love.

FAITH & FILM – The movie for tonight at 5:30 pm is Blinded by the Light.  In England in 1987, a teenager from an Asian family learns to live his life, understand his family and find his own voice through the music of American rock star, Bruce Springsteen.  Bring a snack and a friend and join us for the movie and stay for the discussion after the movie.
 
ANIMATE! – We think it is important for people to take time out to understand their faith, so they can animate it in their everyday lives.  Shiloh is providing 3 sessions of Animate groups.  Each session is a 7-week course.  Tuesday groups meet at Mission Ridge at St. Johns at 10:30 and at Shiloh at noon (Nov 12, 26).  Thursday’s group meets at 6:30 pm at the Ragsdale’s house, members of EUMC, at 612 Wyoming    (Nov 14, 21).  

A HUGE THANK YOU – A huge thank you to everyone who helped with Trunk or Treat and for everyone who donated candy this year or helped decorate inside.  All of this is what makes Trunk or Treat at SUMC a huge success. – Brenda Longin

CHILDREN AND YOUTH COMMITTEE – The children and Youth committee is looking for more volunteers to join our small committee. We do a lot of community outreach and are looking for a few more people to join our super fun team.  Our next project is the annual CRAFT AND BAKE SALE on Sunday, December 1 and 8.

A team member will visit as soon as possible.

HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL – There will be a Halloween Carnival indoors on the same night as Trunk or Treat.  So if you do not like the cold weather, we can use your help inside for the carnival.  There will be 6 different games and we will need volunteers to help with each of these games.  We will also need donations of candy for the carnival.  Please help make this another really successful Trunk or Treat at SUMC.  The sign-up sheets are in the lobby.

FREE STORE – At times a mom brings her small child (toddler, infant) to the Free Store.  Generally, the nursery is available but the mom may choose to have her child with her.  Needless to say, shopping is a challenge.  This has led to the decision to have a stroller available in the shopping room where the child could be placed, thus freeing up the mom’s arm while keeping the child nearby.  If you have one you would like to donate, please contact Peg Parker (690-6370).  Thanks to Kelly Martinson and Crystal Amundson for agreeing to do the birthday bag ministry for the Free Store.

FREE STORE – BIRTHDAY BAG MINISTRY – Each of us can remember a special childhood birthday. However, some of the shoppers at the Free Store cannot afford even a birthday cake for a child’s birthday.  Consequently one of the volunteers started the Birthday Bag Ministry. Each birthday bag (gender specific) contains a cake mix, a can of frosting, candles and party favors for 5-6 children.  Posted signs tell parents to notify a volunteer if a child has a birthday during the current month.  We are also looking for someone new to continue this great ministry.  If you are interested, please contact Peg Parker (690-6370) or pjayco44@gmail.com
 
TRUNK OR TREAT – We will be holding our annual trunk or treat on Thursday, October 31, from 5-7 pm. We will have a sign- up sheet for volunteers and we will are asking for donations of candy again this year.  Thank you for your support and help.
