Picnic at Fowler Pumpkin Patch
The Board of Christian Education has reserved space at Fowler Pumpkin Patch on October 19th from 4:00 to 7:00 pm for fun and fellowship. We will make s’mores over a campfire and have access to the farm and petting zoo. Hayrides will be available for $5 a person, and free for children under three. Feel free to bring a dish to share! We can’t “cook out,” but can bring our own things to eat. Food vendors may also be available. The address is 4932 N. Greene County Line Rd, Bloomington, IN 47403. All are welcome. We hope you’ll join us!
Next month’s Third Sunday Potluck on October 20 will also be used as a Newcomer Event. New or relatively newcomers to our church are welcome to go through the potluck line first and then head to Roger Williams Hall where they will meet each other, Pastor Monica, representatives of our Boards and some members of the Committee for Community Development. Pastor Monica and the old-timers will answer questions and trot you through some hand-outs we have for you, hopefully explaining more about First United Church. We very much hope you can come.
Minister Of Care For The Week Of September 22 Is Sarah Burton. A minister of care is a church volunteer who visits members in their home.
