Our Who is UMW, was a great success this past Sunday. All our Circles had wonderful displays and handouts as did the Book Discussion Group and Mission and Outreach. Vickie Newkirk spoke about how we all make a difference and her past and up coming missions. She also spoke about UMW advocacy around Human Trafficking, Immigration and Domestic Violence. Vickie and Bonnie Albert are traveling to Sierra Leone this December for a Women Conference, they are gathering lapel pins to give to the women that will attend. Sunday we collected 40 pins, their goal is 300. If you have any pins in your jewelry box that you are not wearing please consider donating them to this cause. You can drop these pins off at church on Sunday or bring them to the Christmas Luncheon on Saturday, December 1st. We are also collecting prayer cards for their trip, please fill out a 3 x 5 card, the card can contain a favorite scripture passage and a special prayer greeting to a UMW woman in Sierra Leone.
The food bank will be putting together 100 baskets for Thanksgiving they are in need of the following items. Canned pumpkin, canned fruit, Jiffy corn muffin mix, boxed mashed potatoes.
