MEALS ON WHEELS
First United Methodist Church is scheduled to deliver meals to home bound & elderly in the Knoxville area through Knoxville Senior Nutrition Home Delivered Meals (Meals on Wheels) from September 20th to October 15th. Each day has four routes and they are currently providing meals to 59 people on a daily basis. It is ideal to have 2 persons per route, but a driver alone would suffice. Be a Good Samaritan to one in need, signup sheets are in the entry way outside the sanctuary west doors at the church. You may also contact the church office via e-mail or phone if you are interested in volunteering to help deliver meals.
EXPLORING OUR INTERIOR CASTLE
This is a 24 hour retreat presented by Formation Steering Committee, Board of Discipleship of the Iowa Annual Conference, and United Methodist Church on October 29-30 at America Martyrs, Cedar Falls, Iowa on Friday 5:00 p.m. through Saturday 5:00 p.m. Registration deadline is three weeks prior to each event. If interested contact Pastor Lane.
UMCOR Responds To Iowa Flood
After three nights of heavy rainfall in central and eastern Iowa this month, flooding forced hundreds of residents to flee their homes. The effects of the storms were compounded by those of the snowy winter and wet spring and summer that preceded them. UMCOR provided emergency assistance to the Iowa Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church to meet the needs of communities affected by the flooding. Please give to US Disaster Response, UMCOR Advance #901670, to support those affected by disasters in the United States.
