We received word that our pumpkins have been delayed in New Mexico. Please email the office or text/call Diane Bartley (412-266-6113) if you can help unload pumpkins on Saturday, October 10 at 9 am (if delivery can be arranged then). If you knew of a group coming to help unload, please let them know that there isn't a delivery this Saturday. Please continue to sign up to run the pumpkin patch and stand by for news.
The Cookie Walk is the fastest and the tastiest fundraiser for the church. We will sell more than 6,000 homemade pastries and goodies to the public on Saturday, December 12th, between 9 and 11 am.
The Fellowship of the Cross (FOTC) is selling Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnuts to those who pre-order them by Sunday, October 11, to help raise money to ship our shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child.
Thank you to everyone who responded to the survey. You made our decision easy. Pumpkins arrive Saturday, October 3 at 9 a.m. It will be trial and error on unloading, so have patience, but WE NEED YOU! Wear your mask, and be prepared to help unload in a socially distant way. Even as we socially distance, we will need all the volunteers we can get. Please mark your calendar! To work a shift at the Pumpkin Patch, please go to this link.
Since we can’t host our Monthly Salad Luncheon due to the coronavirus, the Sewickley United Methodist Church Luncheon Committee is offering takeout meals on the first Thursday of the month (when the salad luncheon would have been), beginning on Thursday, October 1.
Thank you to all who responded to the Pumpkin Patch poll. It’s exciting to see almost everyone is in favor of having the Pumpkin Patch this year. The pumpkins arrive on October 3, so mark your calendars NOW!
Instead of having an indoor Rummage Sale in conjunction with the Harvest Festival as we usually would, the United Methodist Women (UMW) are planning something different this September.
Please take a moment to answer the questions in this quick PUMPKIN PATCH POLL to help us make the decision as to have a pumpkin patch or not this year.
Pumpkin Patch time is fast approaching, and we need to make a decision. We need YOUR input. As you
know we rely solely on volunteerism to have a successful Pumpkin Patch. We need your prayers, as well as your input.
