ANNOUNCEMENTS
On Wednesday, February 18th, Ash Wednesday we will have a Pancake Supper in the FSH at 6 pm. Donations are welcome for The Mission to Ecuador. Ash Wednesday Worship Service will begin at 7 pm. If you will be attending, please sign up as we need a count to prepare for the meal. There is a sign-up sheet in the Narthex.
The flowers are given to the glory of God. Let us remember on this Valentine weekend the Greatest Love of All, God’s love for His people and our love for Him! Throughout His Holy Word, we are able to read God’s love letter to us in many verses in scripture. Perhaps the verse we cherish most is His promise found in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” May we continue to live for His glory and share His great love with others.
There will be no Bible Study on Wednesday, February 18th.
Please make plans to attend the UMM Valentine's Dinner on Sat, Feb 28 at 6:00 p.m. in the Fellowship Hall. Tickets are available now through Feb 22. The single women of PSUMC are warmly invited to be our special guests; you may pick up your complimentary ticket from any UMM. Tickets for couples and single men are $15.00 per person. February newsletter for more details. We hope all of you will be able to attend this special event!
