We have been working on the Pumpkin Patch plan since March, placing our order with Pumpkins USA and slightly increasing our count this year! We are asked to list 4 delivery dates and we were slotted in our first pick!
Lots of things will have to happen before delivery day and we are looking for a few artisticfolks to create some new focal points for us. So, if one of your gifts is drawing and painting, and you would like to help out with one or more of these projects, please indicate this on the Yellow Connect Card.
We will also be looking for a few donations – items you might have in your home that you no longer need. If you have any of the following that you would be willing to donate, please reach out to Jackie Hudson, and we can pick up items if needed. We are looking for:
- Small Wooden Children’s Tables
- Large Sheets of Plywood
- Cornhole Game Set
- Childlren’s Wagons – any type
- Medium and Large Baskets
- 2×4’s – any lengths
On Sunday, Sept 29th, we will be putting up the tents on the front lawn and need 8-10 strong helpers following the 10:30am service. Please mark your calendar if you can assist! And we will begin putting up fencing and staging the larger focal points all week, so please consider helping if you are able. We will have more info soon about schedules and sign-ups.
Please be in prayer about this ministry. While the patch provides much support to many of our outreach ministries, another benefit is getting to meet new folks in the area, let them know we are here and invite them to be a part of our community at the Church and the Early Learning Center. Pray about ways you can offer your time and energy, pray for those who visit, and for the seeds of faith planted when we share information.
