JUBILEE




The Final Countdown to Jubilee Christmas Day on December 10…
After weeks of planning with a wonderful combined effort between the Homecroft Elementary school staff, the Jubilee Ministry Team, SUMC Hosts, and each of You we are ready to express more of Jesus’ love and grace with 60 children and youth and their families.
Gifts, toys, personal care items, clothing, and a holiday dinner are made possible because of your generosity. When you give to the Faith Promise Fund, expenses for many of the above needs are covered. Tags that were selected from the Jubilee boards will fulfill a child’s need or Christmas wish. 
What steps are left before Jubilee Day?
Please return all tag item purchases to church by Sunday, December 4
Shop at Burlington with Jubilee parents and SUMC hosts December 3 at 7:30 a.m. for the children’s clothing (cost covered by Faith Promise)
Help the Jubilee Team with set up Friday, December 9 at 9:30 a.m.
Bake cookies for the Jubilee refreshment table and bring them to church Friday, December 9 marked for Jubilee
Arrive at church Jubilee Day, December 10 at 9:45 a.m. to help with final preparations, greet guests, serve refreshments, wrap gifts, or stay for clean up

Finally, at the end of this month we have a great opportunity to share with our neighbors through the Community Fall Festival.   Over the last couple of months we have been learning in worship that we need to share our faith story, and we can only do this through building relationships.

ATTENTION HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS

You may or may not know that in the past, Southport United Methodist Church has been able to offer a small scholarship to assist with college expenses.   The scholarship was made possible by some past members of SUMC:   Mary & Riley Lynch. We haven’t been able to offer the scholarship for a few years but are able to do so again. If you are interested or want more information, please contact Pastor Doug in the church office. Application deadline is July 15th, 2019.   A decision will be made at that time so there can be no applications accepted after that date.
