Belchertown Fair

October 6, 2014 Activtiy, Committees, Missions Comments Off on Belchertown Fair

It was a beautiful weekend September 19th to 21st for a hometown fair.  The weather was cool and crisp and the rain stayed away for 2 of the 3 days.  Our parking lot, always the popular and convenient spot for fair-goers, was full most of the weekend.  20140919_142645 The brownie sundaes were exceptionally delicious and were a hot item, especially on Saturday in the gorgeous weather.20140919_14291720140920_090616  The Missions committee produced a crop of warm, yummy apple pies to sell to parade-goers along with melt in your mouth donuts and coffee.20140920_090632

Discovering the Possibilities…WE DID!

January 17, 2014 Activtiy, Committees, Education, Missions, Uncategorized Comments Off on Discovering the Possibilities…WE DID!

Dear Companions in Christ,

You are the best!  Our retreat was a tremendous success due to your participation!  In addition we want to give thanks to all those who were not able to attend, but fully supported the event with prayers, positive expectations and with great food.  Rev. Rick, our Congregational Development coach, will be sending us a summary of the day and a date for the next gathering.  The next step is to move toward a doable plan to make all those wonderful possibilities come true.  Share  your experience with others!  Friends, let’s keep the Holy Spirit moving  in our midst!

Blessings, Pastor Aida and the Leadership Team

We give a big thank you to Joan and Ginny for all of their hard work to make our church’s Holiday Bazaar a big success! Thank you as well to everyone who helped out in so many different ways.  It looks like Mrs. Claus’ cookie sale is becoming a well received new tradition!!

Update on Super Typhoon Haiyan Efforts

November 13, 2013 Committees, Missions, Worship Comments Off on Update on Super Typhoon Haiyan Efforts

Typhoon Haiyan, possibly the strongest storm ever to make landfall, battered the Philippines Friday, Nov. 8. With sustained winds of 195 mph, the category 5 storm cut a swath of devastation across the northern tip of Cebu and tore through the three large island provinces of Samar, Leyte and Bohol. The United Methodist Committee on Relief is working with partners in the Philippines to provide assistance immediately.
Please be in prayer for our brothers and sisters in the Philippines.  Find out how to join the relief effort.
