Much thanks to the Village of people at Memorial who helped make our 18th Gifts Galore a success!  Twenty years ago, we began our yearly tradition of bringing “arts, crafts and more” to our community.  The money from this event and Bargain Treasures helps Memorial’s budget each year, but the benefits go beyond that.  We offer a time and place where our neighbors can experience Memorial’s hospitality and kindness, getting to know us as more than “the big rock church”.

Your Special Projects Committee

Leading Through Fog

On Feb. 7, 2025 our church will be hosting a workshop- Leading Through Fog led by Brian Zehr, Dr. Glenn Kinken, and Dr. Pamela Palmer. Bishop Carter will be with us for this special event.

The workshop is hosted by the Forward Together Committee at Memorial UMC. Please avail yourself of this wonderful opportunity. Registration is capped at 120 and is open to any church in the Conference.

Again, this year we invite everyone to help refill the shelves of several of our local charities by participating in our 2nd annual Advent Food Drive. Each day from Dec 1 -24 put an item on the list in a box and then bring to the church reception office the week ‘after’ Christmas. The items will be delivered around Dec 27th. Thank you for helping with this project!

Star of Bethlehem

The city of Bethlehem will soon come to life in our parking lot. Before you know it December 14 and 15 will be here and the 2024 drive-thru nativity story will be presented once again. Village people are needed to make Bethlehem the bustling city of old. Saturday and Sunday nights will be from 5:30-8:30 pm.  There will be 45 minute shifts with refreshments in between. This is a really great way for entire families to participate together. You will enjoy the food and fellowship provided for cast members and workers, and most of all the fun of being in the village and a part of this production. If you have previously participated, or are new to this event, please call or email Tim Lyons and let him know of your desire to be in the cast this year.  You may reach him by email at tlyons00@gmail.com or 336-259-6920 by phone.  Volunteer today!
