 Interfaith Hospitality comes to ZUMC March 7-14There is a table in the narthex today for sign-up for Interfaith Hospitality Network from March 7-14. We need help with overnight hosts, activities, drivers, and food. If you have ever done this you know what a blessing it can be and if you haven’t come find out. As we help those in Haiti let’s also remember that the poor and homeless are always with us and to be like Jesus we must do unto the lest of these. Wednesday, February 10, 2010, 07:37 PM

 Would you like to learn to quilt or just brush up on your quilting skills? The ZUMC Blanket Ministry will be hosting quilting classes every Wednesday in March at the “Quilt Cottage” at 5785 E. 500 S., Zionsville. The Blanket Ministry quilts are made to comfort those who are ill, facing surgery or a long recovery, lonely, or infirmed. You may also make a quilt to wrap around one of our littlest members at their baptism. These blankets are individually prayed over for the specific person who will be receiving them. God’s love fills each quilt that is sent out. We need to know who is coming so supplies and space can be made available. Fabrics can be furnished for those you’ll donate to the ministry or you can bring your own fabrics and supplies. Please make a reservation by Monday, March 1st. Just a desire to learn a new skill and the ability to laugh and fellowship are the only requirements for the class. For questions or reservations please call Pat at 873-3762 or e-mail her at: mcknightr@sbcglobal.net. Or call Barb at 769-6691 or e-mail her at maxsonbuild@hotmail.com.Tuesday, January 26, 2010, 07:47 PM
Even the Youngest get Involved in Health Kits for Haiti: Two weeks ago, Carol Wietholter shared with her children’s Sunday School class about Pastor John’s challenge to the congregation to donate a certain amount of money for Haiti earthquake relief. After Carol talked with the children about the earthquake, one of her students, Jack Pensek, stood up and said, “I challenge our class to bring in 100 health bags!” Jack then went home and told his mom, Sarah, who said that if he really wanted to do it, they should make fliers for the neighborhood. Last Sunday, Jack shared that he had collected over 50 bags! He handed out fliers in his neighborhood, to his class at Union and to his dad’s work. How neat! Three of Jack’s Sunday school classmates have brought in 24 more bags! WOW! Way to go!
