The UMW Saturday Circle today

The UMW Saturday Morning Circle met this morning with lots of excitement about what the group is doing in the church and in the community.

In response to the focus areas, the Saturday Circle wants to recommend that the church move away from plastic items, particularly in regards to kitchen items. Items may included such things as straws, stir sticks, styrofoam containers, plastic cutlery. A reminder: Earth Day is April 22.

The Circle will be assembling the UMCOR Health Kits following the May 22 meetings. Items are due to the church by Mother's Day, May 14.

Following the meeting, we began the fun task of assembling the Easter eggs for use by the Sunday School ministry tomorrow. Should be a lot of fun!!!
