We had a blast during our annual Fall Festival this

year. We had a sunny afternoon which was an

answer to prayers. The outreach touched over 330

children and families. Thank you to everyone

who helped make it a huge success. If it were not

for your gracious and giving attitudes, the Fall

Festival would not have be possible.

The Farewell Tour, “Loved”, for Women of

Faith is coming in 2016. You will not want

to miss this final tour. United Methodist

Women will be hosting the event on the

weekend of January 22 & 23, 2016. We

have bought the tickets and would like to

reserve one for you. The cost is $160,

including the ticket, a hotel room for Friday night based on

occupancy of four, van rental and gas. Ticket cost is $99 for a

group rate for those who have made other plans for overnight.

The amount of $160 is due by November 15th. There will be

no refunds and no extensions. Please give your check to Cindy

Nunn by the deadline of November 15th. Contact Kikky

Williams or Shirley Wiley for further information.

Our Preschool and Parent’s Morning Out programs are so excited about this year! We wanted a fun and meaningful name to really personalize our program for our families and our staff. We are happy to announce that we chose Noah’s Ark Weekday School at First United

Methodist Church. We are all about sheltering and protecting our children while loving and teaching them and always having fun while we do it. Look for us to begin to incorporate our new name and logo with t-shirts and other activities.

The UMM are taking orders for the 13th

Annual Fried Turkey Sale!! Orders will

be taken in the Narthex each Sunday by

one of our UMM or phone orders by

calling David Groseclose at 478-457-

years past, we will have both Seasoned”

or “Plain” turkeys. Turkeys must be

picked up on November 25th from 9:00 am to noon.

Community Thanksgiving Service

There will be a community thanksgiving service on November

15th at 4 pm at Chapel of All Faiths on the Central State

Hospital Campus. This service is open to the public and is free.

Everyone is invited to attend.

We would like to thank all of the

volunteers that helped make the Pumpkin

Patch a success this year. We appreciate

you unloading pumpkins, selling

pumpkins, decorating, making

scarecrows, reading to school children,

purchasing items and making donations.

This fundraiser will go toward purchases for our Parent’s

Morning Out and preschool playground that benefits the

children in our church and the community. We are thankful to

Andrew Hitchcock for delivering the hay bales, Williams

Funeral Home for use of the tent, and Mark Paulish for his time

and tractor unloading huge boxes of pumpkins and our

pumpkin patch committee. Congratulations to Walk Through

Bethlehem for winning the best scarecrow!! A donation will

be given to this ministry! Please remember to take down the

scarecrow decorations this week. We appreciate all of the

volunteers who served on the committee and the FUMC staff

who helped with many tasks. Thanks so much for your time

and talents in assisting with the pumpkin patch! It was a huge

success!!
