MOTHER’S DAY RECITAL

Our Mother’s Day Recital will take place again this year during our Sunday school hour at approximately 10:45am. Any child or youth is welcome to participate.  You can sing, dance or play an instrument! All you need to do is connect with Harry.

 

MISSION CENTRAL COLLECTION AT ANNUAL CONFERENCE

This year at the Annual Conference we’re collecting items for Care Kits for Mission Central. You’re invited, as a church, to collect items and bring them to the Annual Conference. The Harrisburg Supervisory Area has been assigned hand towels as our donation item. There will be a place in the Grand Ballroom at the Genetti to drop off donations as well as assemble kits from the collected items. Our goal is 1,000 complete Care Kits which means we need to gather 1,000 hand towels!

 

CLOTHING DONATIONS NEEDED! 

We’ve had tremendous success with our free clothing “Shed of Grace” and we’re in need of some more clothing. Undergarments are our most pressing need, so we ask that those be brand new. We’ve set up an Amazon wish list, so please just use this link: "Click here for the wish list" Thank you so much for your generosity and for reaching out to the community with this essential ministry!

 

COMMUNITY DINNERS

We’re so fortunate to have such a great kitchen facility, so we’d like to use it more often for our congregation and community!  Let’s start a team that has a vision to leverage everything we’re so lucky to have and reach out to our neighborhood and our church by starting with our kitchen for community dinners! If this sounds like something you’d love to do, contact Ruth, ratimothy@gmail.com or 717-317-3781 after 5PM.

 

OUTDOOR WORSHIP SERVICE! 

We're planning to worship in the park with Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church!  This service will take place on Sunday, June 2 at 9:30am. We'd love for just a few people to work on planning a picnic right after worship with our neighborhood friends. If you're interested, please let the church office know!

 

MEN’S BREAKFAST

Gentlemen, please join us at C.C.s Kitchen in Mechanicsburg on May 14th at 9am. 

 

RIP MEDICAL DEBT! 

The church council has set a goal to raise ten thousand dollars in support of RIP Medical debt, to wipe out all the medical debt that RIP Medical Debt has access to in Cumberland County. We can offer NEW LIFE to people struggling. We can move the insurmountable object that families face. We can wipe out all the debt that RIP Medical Debt has access to throughout Cumberland County! To help us in this bold vision, you can donate at the church, online at graceumlemoyne.org/donate or via text (844-964-1547). Please designate donations by adding “RIP MEDICAL DEBT” to a check or by clicking the “other” tab online and by text and adding RIP MEDICAL DEBT.
