Community United Methodist Church
A place to call home
Saturday, July 13, 5-7 PM
Join us for a casual evening of fun and friends at Harriet Wieder Regional Park.
You bring your picnic dinner, we will have the drinks & dessert.
This park has an awesome playground, trails, and lots of grass for games.
The park is on Seapoint St. between PCH & Edwards.
Hope you can join your Messy Church friends for this event.
God calls us to minster to the refugee and the immigrant, but we often wonder what is the best way to help.
Here is one way. We are collecting backpacks with school items for OC Tiyya. Tiyya’s mission is to provide community support and educational opportunities for families of refugees, immigrants, and displaced Americans.
We will collect the backpacks and school supplies July 1—July 15.
Young children’s backpacks should include pens, pencils, erasers, notebooks, crayons & markers.
Older children’s backpacks should include pens, pencils, erasers, notebooks and calculators.
Please bring the backpacks to Suzanne’s office.
You can learn more about Tiyya and the wonderful work they do helping refuges and immigrants at Tiyya.org.
