We hope you join us at 5:30 on Wednesday in the Fellowship Hall as for our Wednesday Night Connect!
Join us for an evening of good food and fellowship as we share a meal and then split into our various groups afterwards.
This Wednesday, we are having chicken spaghetti and chicken nuggets!
We are inviting our congregation to give a special offering to help support the cost of these meals. Donation buckets will be placed in the back of the Sanctuary and the Fellowship Hall, or you can make a gift online by going to https://secure.myvanco.com/L-Z59Z/home and selecting the “Wednesday Connect” button.
We hope to see everyone there!
The United Methodist Men are having their monthly breakfast at 6:30am this Wednesday in the Fellowship Hall. Please come join them for a morning of great food and friends. It's a great way to get your day started.
Everyone is welcome!
Offer to Purchase Our Parking Lot: Our church has been approached by a developer with an offer to purchase a piece of our property. They are interested in the side lot (what we often call the Day School Lot), which is circled in pink on the above graphic. This proposal has already been approved by our Church Trustees and our Church Council.
We need to have a Church Conference to vote on whether to approve the sale of this parcel of land at 12:15 pm May 5 in the Sanctuary. If you have taken the Vows of Membership and officially joined FUMCSM you are eligible to vote.
If you have questions you may reach out to Dennis Phillips (Chair of Trustees) or Billy Dirkes (Church Council Chair)or Pastor Adam and Pastor Danielle.
For Wednesday Night Connect on May 8th we are hoping to organize a salad buffet, not to be confused with a salad bar.
We are looking for volunteers who might like to fix a salad that will provide 20 or more servings. We have a consistent attendance of 55 people. We are hoping to recruit several members to help put together a salad buffet for May 8 Wednesday Connect Supper.
We are hoping for a buffet with several choices. We want it to be more of an organized potluck with designated cooks making their favorite salads instead of people bringing random dishes the day of.
If you are available to help please email Brette Riley or call or text at
512 297 9035
Here are some Ideas:
- Chicken Salad
We will need something that appeals to the children and desserts as well.
Petite bran muffin, banana nut muffin, blueberry lemon muffin, or your favorite.
Lemon Bar or lemon cookie for dessert, or iced carrot cookie, or Wheaties cookie, or your favorite.
The UM ARMY is coming to Gruene UMC but will be doing projects throughout the area!
If you or someone you know needs help with repairs, yard work, cleaning, or other projects around their house please contact our Wesley Nurse, Amy Adams via email, or call at 512-392-6001, ext 308.
