SUMMER…     is just around the corner!
With the change in seasons also comes a change in church service.  We will be celebrating our faith in one service @ 10:00 a.m.  The children will be dismissed to Asbury Hall for Children’s Church just before Pastor presents his sermon.  We are looking for adults and teens to help with story telling, crafts or music.  Whatever talent you have, we can use!  There is a sign-up sheet @ the church in the Welcome Center if you are willing to help for one or more weeks.  Any questions may be directed to Beth Gornati.  Please call Beth @ 781-3554 or e-mail @ ragbag81@zitomedia.net

to witness to others, but didn’t have clue where to start, then this is the opportunity you have
been waiting for.  We are offering a one-day event that will be revealing, informative, and fun. 
There is no cost to you; all materials will be provided as well as refreshments and lunch
All you need to give is 5 hours of your time!  We do need to know if you will be attending so that
we can plan accordingly.  Sign-up sheets are in the Welcome Center at the church or you may call

Summer Camp
Remember it is time to start making plans and preparations for SUMMER CAMP.  Before your calendars fill up with sports, vacations and other activities check out the summer camp brochures and find a week (or a three-day camp for younger children) that works for you.  A week at one of our Christian Camps will change you in ways like nothing else.  You will learn more about how much God loves you, while making new friends, trying new things, and having a ton of fun!

This year’s registration is different from the past.  Each of the three camps has their own website and each camp will send out their own brochures.  This year I will need to hear from every camper’s family who is requesting financial
assistance from the Church prior to registering for camp so our church can send in our portion of the cost. 
Please e-mail me at:  Marcia_rogers2@hotmail.com or call me at 834-4608.  I will help you in any way that I can.

Check out the camps online for more info and to see what is available:    wesleywoods.com
                                            campallegheny.org
                                     jumonville.org

There is also information available in the Welcome Center at the Church about the different camps.

Over the past couple of years families have had to pay less than $100 for a week per camper as our church has been able to pay the rest of the cost.  Also, each camp has other scholarship money available — so don’t let the cost hold
you back.  We LOVE sending as many youth to camp as we are able.  Last year was a new record (32 campers) sent from First United Methodist Church.  Let’s set a new record!

Campership Steward,  Marci Rogers
