Announcements
Mount Union has been in a contract to clear snow from our parking lot for
approximately ten years with a very reliable contractor. While we appreciate
any efforts to help with church maintenance, we must honor this contract. If
you have any questions, please call our head trustee, Doug Thompson.
On Saturday, March 29, the 2014 Women’s Spring Retreat will be held at
Peters Creek Church of the Brethren from 9:00am-2:00 pm. There is a flyer
on the bulletin board with details and there are several copies of the
registration form that you must complete and send in if you wish to attend.
This is always a very uplifting and fun event – please make plans to attend.
Mark your calendars and start saving your yard sale items! There will be a
Yard Sale on Saturday, April 19 (no adult clothing, please) from 8:00 am to
noon. This will be in conjunction with a Breakfast and Bake Sale to help
send kids to Camp Bethel. Items for the yard sale can be brought to the
church and placed in a Sunday School room in the basement that is not
being used. See Karen Stump for answers to any questions about this
event.
Sunrise Service will be held at Mount Union this year on Easter Sunday at
7:00 am. We have invited members from the area participating churches to
sing in the choir for the Sunrise Service. These practices are scheduled for
April 1 and April 8 at 6:30 pm. If you would like to participate in the
community choir for Sunrise Service, please join us on these two dates. We
welcome everyone!
The Hostess Committee is currently working on plans for the breakfast that
we will serve following the Sunrise Worship Service. Please look for more
details to follow on how you can help with this fellowship event. We will
need lots of help for this event.
The Membership Committee is updating the current e-mail prayer chain and phone
chain listing. Check the sheets on the back podium and mark the appropriate
boxes. Questions? see Cindy Windel. Our picture directories are here – also see
Cindy.
