MEMORIAL UMC’s MISSION…

PLEASE, NO…
…old TV’s-No Tubes

Second UMW Bake Sale
September 9, 2017
8:00 AM – 12 Noon
Thomasville Farmers Market
We need all of our cooks to prepare those favorite baked items for the next UMW Bake Sale, September 9, which will again be held at the Downtown Farmers Market. The last bake sale, held on July 7, netted $637.00 which will be used for local and foreign missions. We can do that again with the help of everyone. Some of the items that sell well are pies, breads of all types, cookies and bars, cakes, muffins and breakfast breads, granola and spiced or sugared nuts. Ham and sausage biscuits usually sell quickly to the vendors at the market. You can bring your items to the church on Friday, September 8, from 10:00 AM – Noon and then to Sara Faulkner’s house (910 Robinhood Road) from Noon on. Helpers are needed the day of the sale between the hours of 7:30 – 10:45 AM and from 10:45 AM to Noon.
Please contact Sara with questions or suggestions.
