Current Opportunities
PROJECTION VOLUNTEERS NEEDED IN BOTH SERVICES
It’s such a blessing that we have the capability of projecting words to our music and videos appropriate to the sermon onto a screen in the Sanctuary. To be up and running in the Sanctuary by August, we need one volunteer to learn how to put the information0 into computer and 4 volunteers to run the projection one Sunday per month. There will be a very capable instructor to teach needed skills, so please consider offering your time and talents for this area of ministry. We also desperately need one person to put information into the computer for the early service in the FLC and more people to volunteer to run the projection. Please contact the office or Margareth as soon as possible so we can arrange training.
ENGAGE HELPERS NEEDED
Please call the office to let Anne know you would be willing to help with Engage. Buddy’s Barbeque will be supplying the food and we will need someone to pick up the food that morning. They will supply tea but we’ll need someone to get bottles of water and ice them. And we will require servers and a clean-up crew after the lunch. Please call as soon as possible so we can compile a list of helpers for the coordinator. The more folks who volunteer, the less work for each.
BLESSING BOX IN NEED OF SUPPLIES
Our church now has a “Blessing Box” outside the building. We are filling it with non-perishable items that can be used by those in need. Please donate food and dry good items (clothes, blankets, etc.) for this outreach service supporting those in need in our community.
JOIN THE CHOIR FOR ENGAGE
The Chancel Choir will be performing “Let the Glory Come Down” at Engage this year on Sunday, August 25. Everyone is invited to join the choir to participate in this special presentation. Rehearsals are each Wednesday from 6:30-7:30 pm until the performance in August.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT CONNECTION MEAL ASSISTANCE
Is there anyone who would be interested in preparing the meals on Wednesday nights for approximately 75-90 people starting on September 4-November 6? That would be 9 meals as we will not meet on October 9 during fall break week. If you are interested, please call the office and we can discuss details.
CHILDREN’S CHOIR
Mark your calendar for the Children’s Christmas Program – December 8 @ 5:00 pm.
REMINDER OF CLOSURES FUMC follows the Sweetwater City Schools regarding closures. If the schools are closed due to weather, all activities at church will also be cancelled.
