If ever there was a time to donate blood, that time is now. You can help by donating blood during the American Red Cross Blood Drive being held here on Thursday, February 16th, 1 - 7 PM in Fellowship Hall.

E-Prayer Warriors Needed...
The phone prayer chain has been a vital part of our fabric for many years. Personal crisis arrive, people indicate that they are in need of prayer, and our web of prayer warriors springs into action. To augment this, we have also estabilished a web of prayer warriors using email. When a prayer request is received, either from the web or via the phone prayer chain, our e-Prayer coordinator will send a message to our "e-Pray'ers." God knows the specifics of the person's needs, but it's up to us to lift them to His throne of grace. If you would like to become an "e-Pray'er" just send an email to prayer@pitmanumc.org indicating your interest, and you wil be added to our "e-Pray'er" email list.
If you or a loved one are in need of prayer, fill out the prayer request form and your name will be lifted in prayer. You don't have to include any details. You will be prayed for in confidence. If you would like your loved one to receive a card from our Prayer Card Ministry (see below), please include their address in the comments.
Know someone is need of a Prayer Card?
Please stop by the Card Ministry display and fill out an index card with name and address. We will write, pray and mail a special card. If you have unused cards to donate, I would appreciate them, too. Kaitlyn Weatherby.
District Day of Learning- Saturday March 3...
One of the biggest events sponsored by our Delaware Bay District is the annual "District Day of Learning". This year's event will be held on Saturday March 3, from 8:30 AM-3:00 PM (or as long as you want to stay). And one of the nicest things about it is that it is held at our church! The day starts with a continental breakfast during registration, and then we move into the sanctuary for a time of worship. The rest of the day is up to you. You can choose one of the 13 morning workshops, break for the included lunch, and then attend one of the 13 afternoon workshops. Or, just attend the morning session or just the afternoon session. The workshops cover a wide range of mission, social, spiritual, and church topics. The presenters are laity and clergy who are experts on the topic. The Day of Learning is a great way to meet people from our district and to develop tools for becoming a more effective disciple.
