Announcements

-If you live in a development where you are unable to recycle paper items, please bring them to the East Campus and drop them in our recycle bin located next to the dumpster on the west side of campus.

-The shoe collection bins are no longer available on campus, BUT if you have gently-used shoes to get rid of, please consider donating them to our West Campus thrift shop, open on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The children and youth ministries are collecting soda can tabs to recycle and donate money to the Ronald McDonald House. Any aluminum soda, soup, or cat food can tab will be collected (please, not the entire can just the tab.) You can drop tabs off in specially marked containers found in the back of worship spaces, in the church front office, and in the children’s ministry area. We will be collecting tabs through the end of May.

Each year on Ash Wednesday, we invite our church family to begin the season of Lent by stopping by the church to receive Communion from one of the pastors and, if you desire, the imposition of ashes on your forehead.  This year’s schedule is significantly different from the past. The early morning time slot, 6:00AM until 9:00AM, will be available in the West Campus Chapel only.  The second session, which we have traditionally offered during the lunch hour, will be offered this year in the late afternoon, 4:00PM until 6:00PM, in the East Campus Sanctuary only.

If you were not able to attend the event on February 4, a second date has been scheduled for Saturday, March 3 at Grace UMC, Merritt Island, 9:00am-3:00pm. Go to acdistrictumc.org/2012/to see what classes are available and register. It is FREE, including breakfast and lunch. (Jeanie Tennant mcguirejl@mindspring.com561-945-9097)
