Additional Computers Sought for Children's Sunday School!

Several months ago three computers, monitors, and printers where donated to the children's division of the church. They are ready to be used by the children in the Sunday school. We are looking to add at least three more computers so that we will have enough for an entire class to spend time using them during the Sunday school hour to supplement the lessons in the classroom. The hope is that these will be ready for use by September 2003.

If you are in the process of buying a new computer and would like to donate your old one to the church, please contact Annette Pomeroy (595-0383). Arrangements can be made to pick it up.

Dick Kintigh has placed a DVD in the library entitled Tuesdays with Morrie.

The book entitled Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom is on the 2003 reading program list for the United Methodist Women. Thanks, Dick!

Billie Way reports on the number of books read in the Women's Reading Program on September 10. Summer is a great time to get caught up on your reading.

• Vananken, Sheldon, Severe Mercy (Anonymous donation)
• Karon, Jan, Esther's Gift (Donation by Billie Way)
• Lewis, C.S., Letters to an American Lady (presented by J. Edward Peeples in memory of his mother)

Dear Church Friends,

My sincere thanks to everyone for their calls, cards, prayers and visits during my recent illness.

May God bless each of you;

Love,

Mary Turner

Thank you one and all for your loving support throughout my recent arm problems and surgery. Your cards, phone calls, flowers, food, and prayers helped to speed my recovery. It is touching to experience, once again, the love from my extended family at FUMC.

Most sincerely,

Mary Matthews Garrett
