Dear Union Church Family,

Can you believe it’s almost May? Last year it felt like time stopped and now it’s flying as things slowly come back to life outside and around the community. PTL!

May, of course, is the month for graduation and graduation parties. How fun it will be to celebrate with the culmination of high school and college with our seniors, especially given the challenge and difficulties of this pandemic year! On Sunday, June 6th we will be celebrating all the work that these students, their families and this church body have done to prepare them for what’s next. Make sure to get that date on your calendar. Just a reminder, if you would like your graduate recognized, please reach out to Ashley in the church office.

This celebration will be a good reminder for us to reflect on how we spend our time. Psalm 90 says “the length of our days is seventy years —or eighty, if we have the strength, yet their span is but trouble and sorry, for they quickly pass and we fly away…” Therefore, “teach us to number our days aright that we can gain a heart of wisdom.” (vv. 10,12) The psalmist challenges us to examine our days in the light of eternity. You can ask any senior’s parent, and they will confirm that the old adage is true, “the hours are long, but the years are short.” I’m about to cry!

This coming Sunday we will ask the Teacher to teach us how to love, looking at the story of Jesus raising the widow’s son found in Luke 7:11-17. The sermon is entitled “Love, the Teacher” and I can’t wait to preach it to you!

See ya in church,

Billy

P.S. We will have some fresh DiscipleSHIP video lessons posted for our families with young children, beginning Sunday, May 2nd. Parents, we hope you will make time Sunday morning before worship, to sit down with your child(ren) to watch. Each video will include a lesson, a memory verse, an activity and a song. You will be able to watch it more than once, so don’t worry if you didn’t get the memory verse or activity the first time around! You will find the newest video here…enjoy and be blessed!

Meatballs and Missions

Following the outdoor service on May 23rd: The rolling meatballs Food Truck will make a return appearance, and the Union Church missions team will host a Chance Auction to Benefit the Mission Fund. The missions team is seeking donations for the chance auction. Please let us know if your family or your business can donate a basket or items for this chance auction. This chance auction will replace the annual Chili Cook-Off with a plan for it to return in 2022.

Food Pantry Donations Needed

The Deacons are accepting non-perishable grocery items for the monthly food pantry. We need spaghetti sauces, cake mixes, icing, canned fruit and vegetables as well as chili ingredients. We do accept all food donations. Additionally, paper products, cleaning supplies, health and beauty items will be accepted. Please put all donations in the donation boxes in Fellowship Hall. Thank you for your support!

Union and 412 Rescue

Currently a 412 volunteer delivers produce every Sunday between 10-12 that needs to be unpacked and separated into bags to be used before it spoils. We have offered this additional service to our present Food Pantry clients as a supplement to our monthly boxes. What food we have left we encourage our members to take to share with family, friends and neighbors who are food insecure. Anyone wishing to help with delivery and bagging is welcome to help. Please contact one of your deacons to volunteer!
