*************************COMMUNICATION CORNER*******************
Did you know we now have a
“Sunday School” that is meeting in Mathews Cottage on Sunday mornings before
the adult meeting??? Thanks to Bill
Nunan, we now have a program for children.
About our fellowship: As you
know, our membership is high in quality, but limited in quantity. Please come to Sunday meetings whenever you
can. More is better: more energy, more ideas, more hugs, more
discussion. Your participation is
valued. Hope to see more of you!
Hurrah, SBUF is growing! Take time
to introduce yourself to Russell Jones.
He visited our fellowship in March
and joined the membership.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP Many of our members contributed to Aids
Heartline and Project Needs (service organizations of St. Paul’s United
Methodist Church, our landlord.) We
donated $445.00 to Project Needs ($990.00 when matched by philanthropist) and
$225.00 to Aids Heartline (matched to $450).
IN LOVING MEMORY of Marian Kerr, a grove of five trees will be planted.
