Sunday, December 8, 2019
5:30 p.m. Sunday, December 8, is an opportunity to prepare for the coming of Christ with your church family in a different way. First UMC has been celebrating “Come to Christmas” for more than thirty years. This night is an evening of fun, fellowship, and crafts for all generations together. The activities begin at 5:30 p.m. We will eat soup and sandwiches just after 6:00 p.m. The young and young at heart are invited to take pictures with Santa in the Simmons’ Parlor. The Secret Santa workshop allows children to make gifts to surprise their family. Come for the food. Come for the crafts. Come for the fellowship. Come just to watch the joy of the season in action. Come! Come to Christmas! |

Trunk or Treat/Halloween Party-2018
With the cancellation of Trick-or-Treating, we provided our children through 5th grade with a Trick-or-Treat opportunity! Everyone was invited to decorate their car or just bring a lawn chair and pass out candy to our kids on Halloween/October 31. We set up in the Adult Sunday School Building parking lot and the lot outside the J. O. Smith building. The Trick-or-Treating ran from 6:00 to 6:30 p.m. with our Christian Fellowship Dinner following at 6:30 p.m. Everyone has a lot of fun!! |
