March 16-17

This weekend we will be commissioning our CARE TEAM!  

This might spark questions for people who want to get involved in the Care Ministry.  Here's some info to help you keep people informed.....

CARE MINISTRY TEAM

Let God work through you to reach out in love to those who are

• unable to come to church regularly
• in assisted living facilities
• in the hospital or recovering at home

Use your gifts to send cards, make phone calls, or visit in homes or hospitals. Not sure? Don’t feel trained? We’ll help you every step of the way.
Join a team to encourage, comfort and make a difference in the lives of members of our church family.
Contact Mike Coffey: 407.588.1712 or MikeCoffey@ucumc.net

For people who want to serve outside of the walls of the church......

MISSIONS TRIP UPDATES: STILL THINKING?

God calls us to go into the world and share the gospel. Is He calling YOU to go? We still have openings on our Bahamas missions launch team (June 9?15), our Costa Rica team (July 12?20), and our Cuba team (NEW! June 10?18). There are also two Celebrate Jesus missions in South Florida for those who want to stay closer to home. If you feel God calling you to go on any of these trips, please contact MikeCoffey@ucumc.net. Whether on a trip or back home supporting the teams though prayer or funding, God calls us all to be a part of His ministry.
