This year, they will sing their way through "The Old Testament Fast Forward". Be sure to join us on May 20 at 6:30 pm in the sanctuary for another evening of entertainment. The offering will be used to help with choir clinic expenses.

June 4-7 United Methodist clergy and laity from over 675 congregations will gather on the island to worship, fellowship and handle the business of the church.

Our delegates have attended the pre-conference meeting for the South District and are ready to represent us. Our United Methodist Women have a group attending a luncheon on Wednesday.
 SPRING FEST RESULTS
Thanks to Jeanie Brady for coordinating another outstanding day of fellowship. Although the final numbers are not in, our first count indicates that our church and our community were generous. In addition to group fund raising, we have a significant profit to be divided. 10% will go toward our apportionments, 45% toward Choir Clinic, and 45% toward the Youth Summer Mission Trip.
Thanks for your help.

WHAT A BARGAIN! The Finance Committee is working hard to raise the money to pay our connectional apportionments in full for 2012. We appreciate their efforts. The Casa Ole tickets were quite successful and now you have an opportunity to help distribute special Discount Cards for selected businesses and restaurants int he Pasadena area. For $10 you can purchase a card and use it as often as you desire until the expiration date of April 1, 2013. Please purchase a card for yourself, as gifts for others, and take extras to encourage your friends in the Pasadena to purchase them, as well. Remember, these are not limited to use by members of Sunset UMC! |
