MEMORIAL Garden's WORK DAY
8:00 AM - Noon
It has been a difficult winter and I'm sure there will be lots of
work to be done to get the Memorial Garden ready for Easter Sunrise
service and the many activities we have planned for the spring and
fall. For more information please contact ccullin@severnaparkumc.org.
YOU
CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF A GOOD THING,I am sure that you have heard
this one before. For some people, it is chocolate and for kids, it
is recess. However, for the women of SPUMC, it is having good
food, good fun and good fellowship with their sisters in Christ.
We plan to usher
in spring at Sandy Cove on March 19-21, 2010. The theme of the
retreat is “Daughters of the King”. We will be looking at Esther,
Ruth and the Virtuous Woman from Proverbs.
For more information, or to be placed on
the standby list, please contact Vickie Farmer ...vfarmer@severnaparkumc.org.
