Women’s Retreat

CEC Building, 8:30am-4:30pm. Cost is $25pp for lunch & materials. Register by January 28, 2024

Does simply thinking about chocolate bring a smile to your face? Try thinking about this—hanging out at a café with friends, while enjoying your favorite hot beverage, nibbling on a brownie or bit of chocolate pie, laughing, talking, and relaxing together—it’s a perfect gathering! Café Chocolate is a relaxing chocolate-themed retreat the women of our church are doing together. It includes worship, Bible study, and time for laughter as well as time for quiet reflection. And while the name of our gathering sounds indulgent, we’ll actually be using chocolate as a metaphor for God’s extravagant grace.

Call Lynda Hepler at 336-472-9711 or email lhepler@mumctville.org.

STAR OF BETHLEHEM COSTUME REMINDER:

Thank you for the overwhelming response to pick up the dirty costumes. We went from 66 down to 15 to be cleaned.  If those last 15 would please come to the CEC and get yours, and if the 51 that picked them up this past 2 weeks would return them cleaned in a timely manner, it would be greatly appreciated.

MAY GOD BLESS US IN ALL WE DO
