6th annual Ladies' Conference at PUMC
Rev. Jenny Jackson-Adams, speaker
Priscilla Shirer
, DVD speaker

I am sure you have heard the saying before. We are human beings not human doings. How often do we put that into practice? There is so much to DO! No matter your stage in life, most of us feel busy on a frequent basis. We are often unable to attend to the people we love due to our schedules, our to-do lists. Our relationship with God is not exempt from this neglect. God desires not our works or our completed tasks but a relationship with him. Feb 10th and 11th offers a special opportunity to put away the tasks and to-do lists for a few hours (I promise they will be there when you return.) and be a human being. You will get a chance to be with God, to be with other women and to be yourself. A conference offers a time that is different from a bible study or a church service. It is a chance to go a little deeper.
On Friday our own Jenny Jackson-Adams will bring our message. On Saturday we will study with Priscilla Shirer (via DVD) on the abundance of God. As always we will have great food, lots of laughs, music and good teaching. If you have never attended the women's conference, no more excuses, this is your year. If you have been before, you know the renewal it will bring, so sign up!
The cost is $15 and includes a snack on Friday, breakfast and lunch on Saturday and materials. We will meet Friday from 6:30 to 8:30 and Saturday from 9-3. A more detailed schedule will be up on the church web site soon. Childcare will be provided upon request. Our ladies conference will be held in the fellowship hall at PUMC. Tickets can be purchased after the church services or by calling the church office. Looking forward to being with you. Nanette O'Neill

Mission Outreach
The Missions Committee wants you to be in the know about the mission work of PUMC. This month we are asking for help in the area of Missions. . . .

PAL Sugar Collection: Thanks to your generous donations, we were able to meet our goal of 500 bags of sugar to help families in need in Houston County.

Operation Christmas Child: I received confirmation that one of our boxes arrived in Uganda. Continue to pray for the boxes and the children that will receive them.

Snax Sax: The children at Perry Primary received two bags before their Christmas holidays began. The second bag contained fruit, books, and candy thanks to private donations. This program continues to bless the people who give and the children that receive.

Samaritan’s Closet: On Friday, December 16th, Judy Lilley presented a donation to Brian Bowen’s Snax Sax from the Samaritan’s Closet. It’s donations like this and many others that keep Snax Sax in business.
Soles4Souls: Many thanks to the Discoverers Sunday School class that put the shoes together with rubber bands. The shoes will be taken to a drop-off location in Alabama in the near future.

Winter Coat Collection: If you get a winter coat for Christmas, consider donating your old one to a needy person. We will be collecting coats beginning in January. Please use the gray bin in the Fellowship Hall for collecting them. The local fire department will distribute the coats to needy families.

Altar Flower
Calendar 2012
Choose a Sunday to place flowers in the church. Call Martha Johnson and let her put your name on the Altar Flower Calendar.

A PUMC Member In The Hospital?
We need your assistance. If you know of a PUMC member who is in the hospital, please notify the church office at
987-1852.

Unwillingly Absent?

If you are unwillingly absent, or if you have a loved one who is unwillingly absent, you are invited to receive the Lord’s Supper at home on Communion Sundays. To make plans to do so, please call Rev. Roland Fall at the church office (987-1852) and he will make all of the arrangements.

UNUSED GREETING CARDS NEEDED!

Do you have unused greeting cards with envelopes that you won't be using? If so, please donate them to the Sweet Peas (People Excited About Serving) led by Cathy Shaw. A new ministry has been started to provide greeting cards to detainees at the McEver Center. This is an easy way for the men to stay in touch with their children. The cards can be any kind, including Christmas and note cards. These cards can be dropped off at the PUMC Church Office. Thanks for your help.
