Family Ministries

	FUMC Littles Meet-Up If you have a child between the ages of 0-5 years old, we would love to see you at Gilmore Park for some fun and fellowship on September 17th, 4-5pm. Ms. Allison will be there with her family, and some snacks for our kids.
	Wednesday KIDS - TIME CHANGE Starting September 20th, we will be changing our Wednesday KIDS time to 6-7pm. We have seen how tough it is to get here for programming after work and before dinner, and we are excited for the shift to bring times for Children and Youth programs closer together.
	Parents in the Parlor Not sure what to do after you drop off your kids for Wednesday night programs at 6pm? Starting this Wednesday, 9/20, come hang out with other parents! We will always start in the Parlor Room but may venture out to do other activities together. If you have questions or would like more information, please email Jen Russell @
	Pizza Fundraiser Families, please join us Wednesday September 20th at 5:30pm for a Pizza Fundraiser to finish raising money to purchase a beehive from Heifer International. We will be taking donations (cash or venmo) at the door. Bring your family and let’s eat!
