Happy September

fallfoliageThere is something joyful about the month of September. Not only is there a calendar full of activities but people are getting back to school and renewing their commitment to church and community. Football is back in season at every level. The air is moving away from the humidity of the summer and into the clean, refreshing sense of fall.(Yes, and my birthday is in September!)

Check out this month’s newsletter so we can prepare ourselves to step up in our covenant of prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness. Read this link and see how I give thanks for the way everyone stepped up and made our Hay Day VBS wonderful and then see how you might step up your commitment to the Lord and to the church. Thank you to our Lay Ministers for serving this month, too.

Thanks for HayDay VBS!

weekend-vbs-hayday-logo-color “I want to thank each and everyone for volunteering your time and helping to make Vacation Bible School this year a success. Everyone took great pride and performed all of their assigned tasks. I am really appreciative of everyone’s effort.

Since this is the first time that we have tried a weekend VBS, I wanted to get your feedback on how the day went. Please reply to me and let me know what you liked best, what you didn’t like, any suggestions or something that we can do differently. Any feedback on how the crews worked with the mixed age groups, etc will all be appreciated.

I am open to any ideas for next year. Once again thank you all so much for all the hard work.” Sylvia Aryeh, HayDay VBS Director

July Newsletter and Calendar

libertyjuly

We look forward to the month of July and the reminder to each of us that our liberty is best preserved in responsibility. As your pastor I remind you of your responsibility to uphold the ministries of Laurel Hill United Methodist Church with your prayers, your presence, your gifts, your service, and your witness.

In this month’s newsletter we give thanks for God leading us forward through the Uphill Challenges we face. We know that in Jesus’ name and in the power of the Spirit we can serve the Lord together. Our Lay Servants will lead the way.

Celebrate our graduates and pray for them as they seek God’s will and purpose for their lives.

Also, review our last post and see how you can help with “Hay Day” Vacation Bible School.
