Reminders for this coming weekend

Here are some reminders for upcoming events at the First UMC in Sidney:

May 30th - The Second "Hello Kittie & Who Let the Dawg's Out" event at the Legion Park Shelter House. The event runs from 11:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. with displays, demonstrations, food, and much, much more! Pastor Charles will be there and at 2:00 p.m. will be offering a blessing of the pets (photos, toys, and non-cat/dog pets will be blessed). A certificate will be given to every pet who participates.

May 31st - Pentecost Sunday

Food Pantry donations are being accepted and will be taken to the community food pantry (at the Salvation Army Store) on Monday, June 1st.

Combined Worship Service at 9:00 a.m. Please wear something red on Sunday in celebration of Pentecost! We'll be worshipping as a unified congregation and welcoming into our fellowship six new disciples (this year's confirmation class).

Congregational Potluck: Following the worship service, we'll be gathering in the fellowship hall to break bread together and to share in the


"The Shack" study - At 6:00 p.m., we'll be meeting to discuss chapters 10-13. Please come even if you have not read the book and share in this contemporary allegory of faith.
