This Sunday we will continue our "I've Got a Question" worship series. Each Sunday a panel from our congregation will engage in conversation around the questions you have sent in. There is no way to answer them all and quite frankly one Sunday morning isn't even enough for some of the questions, but we look forward to thinking deeply about our faith in this way. We will close out this series with a night of conversation Wednesday, June 29 @ 5:30. Bring a snack to share and come be in conversation with Pastor Dawn and others around all we heard and asked and lifted.

Good News from PHUMC Homeless Ministry
We have agreed to assist Grace Place with paying for ID cards for the homeless, purchasing new shoes and boxers, and providing kitchen supplies such as forks and condiments. PHUMC Homeless Ministry will present a check of $3,200.00 to Grace Place to help with the above needs. 

In addition, Jerry Sandlin and Juliet Huam took 1,035 bottles of water, 95 (2.5 oz) cans of OFF insect repellent, and two boxes of rain ponchos (120 count) to Grace Place last week. Also, we have an ongoing commitment to provide desserts on our twice-a-month visits at Grace Place. 

If you would like to join us in serving our homeless brothers and sisters at Grace Place (downtown Jackson at Galloway UMC), we carpool on the first and third Wednesdays of each month, meeting at the church parking lot at 7:10 am.  --Juliet Huam
