Welcome to the WUMC Family Ministry Blog

Welcome to the new WUMC Family Ministry web page/blog. The Family Ministry is a group of families with generally younger kids (elementary age and younger) who get together about once a month for some sort of fellowship and social activity with the kids. Some of our past events have included free family movie nights, a Fall Harvest Festival, Gingerbread decorating parties. We also try to get the Mom’s and Dad’s together for some adult fellowship as well. During the school year we have a Sunday School class that can but does not always pertain to parenting issues.

My hope is that you will be able to stop by here any time and get an up-to-date look at what we will be doing and what we have been doing with the Family Ministry. And hopefully you will like something that you see so that you will be willing to stop by one of our events and check us out!! We would love to have you!!!

If you have any comments or suggestions, please let me know. I am ALWAYS looking for ideas to make things better, fresher and more exciting. Just tell me your idea.

Thanks for stopping by and hopefully we will

SEE YOU SOON!!

Our Calendar of Family Events!

If you have any questions or want to help plan any activities, please contact Lisa Bowman at Jon_and_Lisa@verizon.net

Have a great day and we can’t wait to see you!

We are very excited about this years Thanksgiving Potluck dinner and Shoebox Ministry!
The dinner will start Saturday, November 21st around 5:00 followed by stuffing and wrapping shoeboxes and family nativity pictures.  Turkey, paper products, and drinks will be provided.
We are asking everyone to please leave a comment below with your RSVP letting us know how many people are coming and what dish you are bringing.
Also, please bring Christmas wrapping paper and tape as well as your shoeboxes and items to stuff the shoeboxes.  Some ideas for the boxes include school supplies, small toys, hygiene items, hard candy and hair clips.  Please remember that if your items need batteries to include extra batteries and DO NOT bring any kid of war-related items.  Please make sure that your items are in new condition.  In the past we have been able to fill about 50 boxes and we are hoping to do at least 60 this year!!!
