We are very excited to have Bishop Soriano visit us in November. We will pick him up Saturday, November 14th in Nashville and he will be staying with the Rogers in Fort Branch. We will have the honor of him attending our Sunday service on the 15th. What a blessing this will be. It really shows the support we are receiving from the Bishop on our mission trip in April of 2010. I will also be an opportunity for our congregation to meet him and ask any question. God is Good.

Philippine Mission Trip 2010 Update/ August 2009
In August the Church began providing an insert into the bulletin to outline some of our needs. It is exciting to see items coming in. Here is the bulletin:
Our plans for the Biao, Philippines Mission Trip is under way and we are gearing up now. We will be starting a new United Methodist Church there as well as providing a first ever Vacation Bible School Program. One other item on the agenda is to provide school supplies and backpacks to the 340 high school students who have to walk up the mountain several miles each day just to go to school. We would be grateful if you could help us out with this mission goal as you are purchasing school supplies for your own children this fall. This is a great time of year to find school supplies at drastically reduced prices.
Items we would like to give each student:
Back Pack- Rain Coat- Umbrella-Note Books-Paper ( writing pads or loose leaf)
Ball Point Pens-Pencils-Dictionary-Single Pencil Sharpener
