The UMW is open to all women who are interested in Christian fellowship. The group has two rummage sales a year and operates a booth at June Dairy Days to raise money to support both global ministries and the local church. Other activities include planning a Women's Sunday once a year and sponsoring a family at Christmas. Meetings are held on Saturday mornings so that working women can attend and are welcome to bring children. A short program follows brunch. Come and get to know your neighbor! Call Patti Petroni at 716-560-9778 for further information.

The January meeting was held on the 9th at 10 AM. Ten ladies enjoyed a delicious brunch prepared by Judy Zayac and Patti Petroni.

The “No Bake Sale” is coming up in March, with Sandy Tsujimoto as chair. We received a Thank You note from the Nome mission VBS program, and Sue Simmons spoke about the Reading Program. Our February meeting was held on the 13th at 10 AM, with Doris Kellogg and Judi Hughes as Hostesses. Ten ladies were in attendance.

We discussed the upcoming Lenten Luncheons, the No-Bake Sale, the Reading Program, and will continue to support the Children's Ministry in Nome, as they will be offering a Tuesday School After School program, continuing to share the Good News with the children of Nome through the year, as well as the VBS Summer Program. We thank Patti Petroni for heading up this program for Cuba UMC!

Our next meeting will be on March 13th at 10 AM. Mark it on your calendar, and join us for great food and even greater fellowship!

Successful Rummage Sale

Submitted by Deb Battistoni

The UMW would like to thank everyone that helped with our fall rummage sale, whether it was by donating items, unpacking, working the sale hours or packing the remaining items to go onto another mission. We took in over $800, of which $70 was from the $1 a bag sale. The UMW has set aside $300 from this sale to help fund the Christmas Help a Family project (we help two needy families).

Larry and Sandy Lathrop came to take the clothing and some house wares - they weren't sure if they were taking a trip to Kentucky or would donate to Wellspring Ministries in Angelica/ Belfast where the public can get free clothing. The books that remained went to the Cuba Library Book sale, and the remaining items were taken by Cindy and Deb to the Friendship Transfer station's Mission building (run by a group from Rochester).

We are a sharing church, always trying to help those in need.

Our next sale will be May 6, 7 and 8.

 

 

 

 

 

Food Pantry Collections

Submitted by Cindy Dutton

On Communion Sundays, the first Sunday of each month, the UMW will be collecting items for the food pantry. Please bring in non-perishable items to help support our local food pantry, located at the First Baptist Church.

We are so fortunate to have a food pantry in our community, and it is because of you that we do! Thanks for your continued support to this all important ministry.
