Sept 22: Farmville District Day

Theme:  Lets’ Get Together with Our D.S.  

Jim Tongue will be speaking. Mark your calendars now for a great program of coming together and sharing what we as UMW have done for others this year.  A registration form is on this page! The Memorial Service for deceased members during this year will be observed at District Day.  Mission Focus:  PATMOS—A stamp ministry which collects new stamps to be issued to prison inmates throughout the U.S. Mission Offering will be split between Mission Giving and the Southside Gleaning Network.

The Farmville District United Methodist Women have been “Getting Together” this past year with the new program theme “Let’s Get Together”. The puzzle pieces come together to show an active year of “focus” on missions. Each unit needs to be especially proud of the 2009 Pledge to Mission which exceeded our pledge of $27,000 by $2,464.40. This figure does not include the $7,175.67 for VA Projects, Call to Prayer and Supplementary Donations. Our total giving’s was $36,640.07

Advent Day Apart

Sunday, November 14th @ Farmville UMC, 3PM 

Rev. Maxine Crenshaw, Pastor, Union UMC will be preparing our hearts for Christmas.  The offering received will be sent to Kingsway Prison Ministry, as well as, items for their Christmas ministry (5”x8” white or yellow notepads, ChapStick and regular size plastic tubes of toothpaste)

PATMOS MINISTRIES

“Help Stamp Out Loneliness” 

 The goal of Patmos Ministries is to bring resources to programs that improve and enhance the lives of those who are or who have been incarcerated. These resources include postage stamps for the more than 130,000 women who are incarcerated in federal and state facilities.  For more information contact Deaconess Patricia N. Marks, Patmos Ministries, 8201 Blairton Road,
