UMM breakfast today

Eleven men came out on a rainy Saturday morning in the Bitterroot Valley for a time of breakfast, fellowship, and planning.

Don Nelson reported that a fund had been established at Valley Drug for use by the W.I.C. staff to secure items needed by the program's clients.  Contributions can be made through the UMM or directly to Valley Drug.  A 10% discount is being offered by Valley Drug for items purchased by the WIC staff.

Ed Sperry shared with the group about the upcoming planning meeting for the National Day of Prayer (NDP).  The meeting will take place on Saturday, January 25th, at Frontier Café.  Pastor Charles and Ed will be attending this meeting.  The NDP is on Thursday, May 1st.

John Fisher presented an invitation to everyone about the upcoming church-wide retreat on January 24-25.  This is an exciting opportunity to be in on the visioning and launching into the future that God has for this congregation.  John said that the Guiding Team would like to know who is planning on attending the retreat by Jan. 19th.

We also discussed the Valentine's Day dinner at the church.  The dinner will be catered and will take place at the church on Feb. 14.  Details will be in the bulletins and in the February Glad Tider.

Today's breakfast was provided by Les Smith and Dean Diers (joey brought Dean's contribution).

Next meeting will be on February 8th.  Gathering at 8 am, breakfast at 8:30.
