Reminders & Announcements for the Week of April 11, 2021

Church Family and Friends, there’s much news to share with you this week.  Please read our weekly announcements below.

  • COMING SOON: Starting in May, PFWUMC will be starting a new Prayer Ministry called: The Power of Prayer Line. This will take place every Thursday evening beginning on May 13th from 7:pm to 7:30 pm via Conference Call. Callers may call in to ask for prayer on any Issue that they need to be lifted up in prayer. This will be another opportunity to Praise God for His Blessings as well as to ask God for His blessings. Information on how to call in will be available soon. 
  • UMW Mission: Stamps for Wounded Veterans: Remember to cut out the stamps a little larger than the stamp itself.
