The Knit and Sew group members assembled over 50 baby layette kits on March 20th for UMCOR to be distributed world-wide to those in need. They collected donations of money, diapers, and other layette kit items. Thanks to this group and to the many generous donors for making this mission project a success!
Elkhorn Hills UMC would like to congratulate member Troy Sidders who has been named to be the principal of Arbor View Elementary School, which is slated to open for the 2016-2017 school year.
Check out the various lenten bible studies that the Elkhorn Hills UMC adult ministries group is offering: Son of God, I Am statements of Jesus, Financial Peace University, book clubs, and special services.
The Lenten study for the GRACE class will be “Son of God.” The 6-session DVD study features clips from the movie “Son of God.” This adult ministries class meets at 10:15 Sunday mornings and is open to all adults 18 years and over. Visitors are welcome at any time.
Elkhorn Hills is a great place that cares for the youth in our community. Our first meal to the youth served by Youth Emergency Services (YES) was a success! A big “Thank You” to everyone who donated cash to purchase the chicken and to those who donated drinks, paper products and all of the other food items. Thank you for helping to share the love of Jesus to these youth.
EHUMC has selected Youth Emergency Services as its mission of the month. The mission of YES is to serve homeless and at-risk youth by providing critically-needed resources which empower them to become self-sufficient. See the recent OWH article about YES and to learn more about how EHUMC is serving the community.
Elkhorn Hills member Tom Beeson finally gets a big deer. Check out the story in the Sunday, Feb. 8, 2015, OWH article. Nobody in Tom Beeson’s family believed he could shoot a big deer. All three of Beeson’s kids — Joe, John and Elly — have shot nice deer, all bigger than Beeson’s first and only kill before now. So this fall, when he killed a 5×5 whitetail on a solo trip, he made sure to take a selfie so he’d have proof.
The first annual chaperone fundraiser sponsored by the EHUMC GRACE Sunday school class was a rousing success! A Comedy Night and Dinner was held on Feb. 6th from 7 – 9 pm to raise funds for chaperones on the youth mission trips this summer. The event sold out! Additionally, many generous members who were not able to attend donated to this worthy cause. The FLC was transformed into an Italian dinner theatre for a delightful evening of good food, fellowship, and Christian comedy.
Thank you to the Snow Team Heroes who cleared the sidewalks, stairs, and doorways of the church today. The volunteer members of our Elkhorn Hills snow team braved these brutal conditions for you and me. Thank you, snow team members!
The Knit and Sew group is assembling 50 baby layette kits for UMCOR to be distributed world-wide to those in need. They are producing many of the items; however, they need cloth diapers, diaper pins, or cash. Please donate for this worthy cause.
