New Year, New Resolve

Christ is born! This is an exciting time in the life of the church. Make a New Year’s resolution to be in Sunday school every Sunday as we learn the stories about Jesus’ life.

Be in Charge!


The Children’s Ministry is searching for a few good volunteers to be in charge of our big events next year. We are looking for a leader for Easter Egg Hunt on April 4, 2009. We also need chair people for Vacation Bible School which will be held July 13 - 17 of 2009. Getting involved in these events is a great way to make new friends and sharpen your event planning skills. Your reward will be the satisfaction of giving a terrific experience to the children and families of CUMC! Please contact Anne Deegan at anne@cumc.com for more information about these exciting opportunities.

Created by God

All 5th and 6th graders and their parents are invited to a special workshop, “Created by God,” which focuses on God’s gift of human sexuality from a Christian perspective. The class is led by Laura Atterstrom, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Family Counselor, who has been certified by the United Methodist North Texas Conference to lead “Created by God” workshops. The classes are offered each January and May and we are now enrolling for the January workshop to be held January 22 - 24. You don’t want to miss this opportunity for assistance with the huge responsibility of teaching your children about their sexuality. Registration is now open. You can register and read more information about the workshop on the Children’s Ministry and Youth pages at cumc.com. Please contact Anne Deegan at anne@cumc.com if you have any questions about the program.
