The Good News Club built 4 birdhouses recently and they were such a hit that we are now taking orders for birdhouses. Thank you to Bob Passow for your help with the pre-cutting and drilling.

We enjoyed a wonderful worship service with a polka band playing the hymns last month. It was so well received, we may have to make it a tradition.

We are having a fundraiser to help us pay our Mission Shares (Apportionments) which will culminate in a freewill-offering dinner on Friday, October 27th at 5:00 pm.

We support the ministries of the church through our apportioned funds, a method of giving that proportionally allocates the churchwide budget to conferences and local churches.

For United Methodists this method of giving has become a strong, generous tradition.

Together, through our connected congregations, we accomplish what no single church, district or annual conference ever could hope to do alone. In this way, each individual, each family, each congregation gives a fair share for the church’s work. We combine our prayers, presence, gifts and service to make a significant difference in the lives of God’s people.
