UMW

We have started going to a new church.  The Catholic sermon was just too hard to follow.  Who knew you had to douse yourself with water, make hand gestures, kneel on hard surfaces for long periods of time and mumble a lot of holy words???

The United Methodist Church was right across the street and they have an 9AM service that lasts only 45 minutes.  The folks there are very, very friendly and, come to find out, a lot of our neighbors go there too.

Today I went to the first United Methodist Women's meeting.  I had a chicken salad sandwich on white bread (2nd one in 3 days), chips, ice cream and cookies for $4.00.  On October 9th is the church bazaar so the meeting focused on who was going to do what.  I volunteered to help out and I am kind of excited about it.  This year they collected old jewelry to resell and the ladies were gushing over how nice the jewelry is, so I want to get there early to see it before the good stuff is gone.  They also sell soup and sandwiches, jams and honey, baked goods and whatever stuff people donate.

So if you are near Jefferson October 9th between 10 AM and 1 PM, stop on by.
