Join Parkwood UMC and the UMM for a Durham Bulls Game, May 18

The Parkwood UMM are sponsoring a trip to the Bulls Game on Thursday May 18 game time at 7:05pm. Please contact Frank Stephans ASAP if you are interested in attending. If we can get a group of 20 or more, we can get a group discount. This is open to everyone and a great outreach opportunity to invite a friend who does not attend PUMC to experience the fellowship of PUMC. If you are interested in carpooling to the game, a carpool will leave the parking lot across from church by 5:30pm. Gates to the ball park open at 6 pm.
