FALL WORSHIP – The Fall 2019 Sermon Series is Faith by Numbers: Choose your own Spiritual Adventure. This fall we will be placing scripture alongside the life of John Wesley who founded the Methodist movement. We invite each person in the church to learn that faith changes and practices grow throughout our lives, and you can choose how you want to draw your own masterpiece of your life with God alongside you. The series will carry us through October.
AGING WELL – FRAUD: Enrich the gift of growing older; join us in a new year of Aging Well programs. Our first program will be on Wednesday, October 9 from 11:30 am to1:30 pm.

RSVP’s are appreciated (406) 656-0050; liz@shilohbillings.church.
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 will meet at Mission Ridge at St. Johns at 10:30 am and at Shiloh at 12 noon. Thursday a group will meet at the Ragsdale’s house, members of EUMC, at 612 Wyoming. The group will meet Oct. 10, 17, 24, and 31, and Nov. 7,14, and 21st.

She left clues for him on her whereabouts throughout National Parks across the West. Please join us and ask a friend.
DEEPER DIVE WITH PASTOR TYLER – BOOK OF JONAH – Pastor Tyler’s Deeper Dive series will be on Monday, October 14 at 6 pm. It is a chance for him to offer prayer, conversation about topics in sermon, and opportunities to look at challenging issues in our world and lives.

FALL MISSION PROJECTS – This fall the Missions Team is sponsoring the following projects: Sleeping bags for the HUB. If you would like to sponsor one or more they are $44.00 each. Please write your check to SUMC with sleeping bag in the memo. White socks for the HUB. If you would like to participate in this project, please purchase white socks and put them in the tub in the Fellowship Hall. The Angel Tree will be up by November 17 this year. There will be tags for Tumbleweed, Independence Hall, St. Johns, and Autumn Springs this year. We will also have boxes for pantry items needed by Tumbleweed and Independence Hall.
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.
