Understanding Where We are
Join us Sunday evening in the Fellowship Hall from 5:15-6:45 on November 27th for conversation and teaching as we continue to seek understanding on our current UMC moment. We will cover questions, review our history, share the latest news, and cover the relevant Biblical passages as we clarify where we stand. Please keep our denomination in your prayers as we continue to live out our faith in Jesus together here in Richmond and beyond.

Red Cross Blood Drive
We are getting closer to our blood drive to support the American Red Cross in their effort to address the critical blood shortage which exists. We still have twenty-six time slots to fill, so we are looking for past CUMC donors, as well as new donors, to get registered in order to make this a successful blood drive. Go to redcrossblood.org and enter code CUMCRICH in the box that says find a blood drive. Appointment times available 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Tuesday, December 6, 2022. Drive will be held in the multipurpose room. Questions? Contact Dana Mollenkopf at papamole@comcast.net or at 765-277-0287.
Help is needed! Due to shoulder surgery, Dana will be unable to do things as usual for our blood drive scheduled for December 6. Help will be needed for set up and for tear down. Greeters will also be needed throughout the drive schedule from 1:00 until 6:00. For more information, contact Dana at 765-277-0287 or at papamole@comcast.net. THANKS.
