BUMP Children's Christmas Project

The Blackfeet United Methodist Parish (BUMP) has once again requested that churches in the Yellowstone Conference contribute to make Christmas special for the children on the Blackfeet Reservation.  
Last year our generous SUMC members sent 80 Christmas boxes!  Bless youl  This year we are requesting that you donate money which will be used to purchase presents for the children.  We have made this change because John Ball who delivered the boxes to Browning from First Methodist of Missoula and SUMC for the past two years will be recovering from hip surgery and cannot make the trip.  

Please prayerfully consider what you spent last year on presents and wrapping and write a check for that amount or more to Stevensville United Methodist
Church with "BUMP Christmas Boxes" on the memo line and put in the offering by Nov. 12 deadline.   You will find a tag in your Sunday bulletin which we ask you to attach to the small Christmas tree on the table across from the office.  Our tags will help us all see how our gifts are growing each week.  Thank you so much for your generosity in making Christmas a joyous time for a child who might otherwise get nothing.  You make God smile!
