WYNNTON PRAYER MINISTRY

Wednesdays, 6:30 – 7:00 p.m.

Chapel

Come be a part of this intense time of prayer for our church, the Church Universal, and our nation. This will be a quiet, unstructured, time of private prayer in our chapel.

School Supply Project

There are lots of opportunities for students in our neighborhood to get school supplies at the beginning of the school year, but there is a need to re-supply those same students and schools with consumable materials (crayons, glue sticks, markers, pencils, paper, etc.) mid-year. We will be postponing our school supply project until January. You are encouraged to take advantage of the current school supply sales and hang on to your purchases until after Christmas. If you want to make a monetary donation before the end of the year, make checks to Wynnton UMC and mark for school supplies. Thank you, Wynnton, for your continued support of the children in this community.
