Breakfast in Fellowship Hall

Last Thursday our UMW hosted the Maundy Thursday Breakfast.  Della Bozarth opened our breakfast with prayer.  After breakfast, Glenda Ketterman share her experience on the mission trip to the Midwest Distribution Center in March.  Our speaker Rev. Katurah Johnson shared about the Steward House in Gary a former settlement house, which is now the location for a Urban Farm and Community Garden. She share about all the work that has been put into this property and what is still needed to make this project a success.

We are planning on putting together a group from VFUMC to help on the work days which are the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month.  You can find out more information on this at www.facebook.com/stewarthouseurbanfarm
