Donations can be sent directly to her church in Western North Carolina, to Blackburn’s Chapel UMC, 3986 Todd Railroad Grade Rd, Todd, NC 28684, C/O Rev. Laura Beach.

      Advent Decorating – Get the church building ready for the Advent season by decorating the outside and inside. Join in on Monday, November 25th at 10 am. If you can’t help out then, right after the Thanksgiving meal on November 24th, join in with some preparatory work needed. Speak to Glenda Thompson or Cindy St. Clair if you have questions. 

       

      Calling all angels – With an anticipated sermon series on the angelic visitations in the Gospels, Pastor Will and the Worship Committee are asking for Angels. No, not the folks that volunteer week in and week out, but rather the artistic representation of angels that will decorate the sanctuary during the season of Advent. Bring to the Church Office during office hours, M-Th, 11-4, to be used throughout December.
