Hi everyone! As some of you know, we at Cox Memorial UMC help house the food pantry for the elementary school. We are kicking off a Pampered Chef Fundraiser this week for the Hall Dale Elementary School Food Pantry! We are asking for volunteers to help by passing around a catalog and collecting orders! We have packets available! Please let Amy Wilson know if you would be interested in helping out! The person who collects the most money in orders will earn a prize!!! You can also share the link pamperedchef.com/go/hdesfoodpantry or shop at it yourself! Shares welcome! Thank you!

Enjoying World Communion Sunday!!

We would love to have you join us during the summer for some special "not your average Sunday" worship!

Happy Heritage Sunday!! We had a wonderful luncheon this afternoon celebrating the history of the church!

5th Week of Lent: "Knowing" and "Believing" are two totally different approaches to how we own the resurrection of Jesus Christ in our life of faith. "Knowing" means we are invested in the story, "believing" means we are all in, when it comes to the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Fourth week of Lent: Ordinary water is good to drink when you're thirsty. But living water is for our thirsty hearts.

Third week of Lent St. Augustine defining hope: "Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are."

Thank you to all who came and supported our fundraiser last night at The Red Barn! We were able to raise over $2500 for the Hall Dale Elementary School Food Pantry!

Hello there, Recently we have had an influx of students at our local elementary school with no snack for school. If some of you are willing to donate a few of the items below it would be a HUGE help to some of our students. You can drop them off during the fundraiser Tuesday from 4-6 at the Red Barn, at the school or the church. animal crackers gold fish granola bars pretzels GoGo squeezes cheese sticks yogurt tubes Thank you!

First Sunday in Lent Temptation comes in many forms. Here are just a few: First is the compulsion to be successful. Second is the compulsion to always be right. Third is the compulsion to be powerful, to believe that we actually have everything under control.

Transfiguration Sunday!! But what if the point is not to decode the cloud but to enter into it? What if the whole Bible is less a book of certainties than it is a book of encounters, in which a staggeringly long parade of people run into God, each other, life -- and are never the same again?

Thank you to all who came to our Craft and Vendor Fair today!!

As we gather around our tables and begin to plan for the holidays, remember those who struggle to put food on their tables... especially this time of year. Hall Dale Elementary School has a Food Pantry that provides Thanksgiving baskets of food to 26 families who have that struggle. They are beginning to collect the large amount of items needed for this great endeavour. Here is a list of items the Food Pantry is requesting; if you can donate, please drop off the items at the school or the church. Thank you! FOOD ITEMS NEEDED- Cereal Can Corn Box of Stuffing Can Cranberry Sauce Can Pumpkin Box of Granola Bars Turkey Gravy Packet

We may have been small in numbers today, but big blessings were placed on animals here and gone! We even were able to witness a puppy possibly finding his forever home! ❤❤ "All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful: The Lord God made them all."

"Let the circle be wide 'round the Table, And we'll soon make room for you; Let your heart have no fear, There are no strangers here, Just friends that you never knew." Happy World Communion Sunday!

What an awesome Bucket Brigade we had today filling the 14 Flood Buckets!!! Thank you to all those who helped, one way or another!! Many hands made light work! We found a need and filled it! Keep posted for our next service project! :-)

Come join the Bucket Brigade!! This Sunday after church (around 11:15) we will be assembling these Flood Buckets to be sent to help people around the country!! We will fill the buckets with items like work gloves, trash bags, rope, scrubbers, laundry detergent, dust masks, and more!! Then we send the filled buckets to UMCOR (United Methodists Committee On Relief) who then distributes them to clean up crews around the country after natural disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes. The buckets are a HUGE help! Thank you to all those who have helped with donations of time, money and supplies to be able to fill 14 buckets!!! Wow!!
