DGFUMC Youth will be traveling to Aurora on Monday, June 4th to help out at Feed My Starving Children! We still have quite a few spots left, so adults (we need drivers!) and students who want to help can join our group by registering at this link:
Anyone 6-12th grade is invited to share in our Summer Ignite Program from 6-8 PM! Dinner will not be provided, but you are more than welcome to bring snacks to share. Hope to see you!
We know that this is the time of year when everyorganization is asking for donations. Well the DGFUMC college scholarship fund is doing the same thing. What is the scholarship fund and who is helped by it? Three separate funds were started over 20 years ago and those gifts have now been used up, however we continue to want to help college students. In August, we present small gifts to 4 students who have been active in ministries of DGFUMC. If each family would give $5 in honor of each of their children now and $5 on that child’s birthday, we would have thousands of dollars to give out each year. Please consider giving to this fund.
If you would like to apply for a scholarship, please fill out the form below and return it to the church office by July 1.
FUMC will be hosting two youth choirs this summer and host families will be needed for both. Chapel Choir members have enjoyed their experiences with host families during tour over the years, so now it's our turn to provide some hospitality.
The Celebration Singers and Ringers from Church of the Saviour UMC in Cincinatti will present a concert on Sunday, June 10. Overnight housing will be needed that evening for approximately 41 youth and 8 adults.
The Sonshine Choir from Brentwood (TN) UMC will be here Saturday, July 14. They will present a concert that evening and then sing at both worship services the following morning. Housing will be needed for approximately 100 youth.
We are currently looking for housing for the Celebration Singers and Ringers on June 10. If you have available beds please contact Katie Bartholomew or Don Dunham.
Please plan to stay after church next Sunday, May 20, to officially welcome our new Youth Minister, Katie Bartholomew. You can read more about her here, but now you can come to meet her in person.
A cake and punch reception will be held in the gym after the 9:30 and 11:00 services. See you there!
Come join the DGFUMC Youth for the 2012 field day on Saturday, May 19th from 2-5PM. We will have an inflatable water-slide, face painting, games, and food! It's pretty much going to be the best day ever.
Please contact Katie or JJ if you want to attend!!
Senior High students attending the 2012 Mission Trip to Belle, WV will be selling shares of stock to members of the congregation starting next Sunday, May 13. Students can sign up to sell shares in the Parlor between services. Please contact Katie or JJ to sign up.
