Feb 2010 - UMW Happenings
Brad and Libby Birky from SAME Café will be the guest speakers at the UMW potluck brunch on Sat. Feb. 6, 9:00 – 11:00 at the church.
SAME Café, which stands for So All May Eat, was founded to provide good quality meals to all regardless of ability to pay. All church members and guests are invited to come and learn more about this wonderful ministry. If you can, bring a “brunch item” to share.
Please bring one of the following items to donate to the SAME Café: paper towels, toilet paper, napkins, or straws (individually wrapped). They have also asked for donations of silverware, plates, and coffee mugs—these should be reusable, not paper goods.
Cherry Cobbler Fund Raiser – Sun. Feb 14th
