Sunday, June 25th will be a special
Lay-Led Service, and we encourage everyone to make plans to attend. It will be a little more informal, so we will not be livestreaming the service. We will sit at tables, share coffee and donuts, let you choose your favorite hymns, worship, and reflect on how we are the church together. If you would like to help lead in this special service, contact John Reed or Drew Pruett.

Last week our VBS Kids participated in our Raise the Roof $60,000.00 challenge and set a goal of $300 to match what is being asked of our members. They raised $325.00, and that amount has been matched by a donor in honor of all the VBS Volunteers, bringing the VBS total to $650.00. Let’s join our kids in Raising the Roof at Parkway Hills UMC!

Matt Reed, Jody Nichols, Dawn Flowers, Geoff Davidson, Lisa Reed, and Jim Robertson made quick work of yet another fallen tree this week. Our wood pile for the fire pit is growing!
