Making Sense of the Bible
We will be starting a new study at Parkwood UMC this September on Adam Hamilton’s ‘Making a Sense of the Bible: Rediscovering the Power of Scripture Today.’ Mark your calendars:
Our Sunday time slot will be during the Sunday school hour (9:30-10:30) and will begin on September 7th. Our Wednesday time slot will be from 6:15-7:15 pm and will begin on September 10th. Like last time, feel free to bring some food with you if you’re rushing over from work. The study is 6 weeks long and will end on October 12th and October 15th respectively.
This will be a challenging study for us as we ask some tough questions about how we view scripture and the issues it presents. We’ll also discuss how scripture speaks to the tough issues of our day. Knowing that we have a diverse congregation with different views and interpretations, we’ll need to make covenant before our study begins to listen to and be respectful of each other’s thoughts as we discuss. Be prayerful of this as you prepare to sign up for the study.
If you’re interested in participating in this study, please sign up or let Pastor Nathan know by Sunday, August 24th. Books can be ordered and ready to deliver by August 31st.

UMM Pulled Pork Sale
The Parkwood United Methodist Men will be selling pulled pork on May 4th, 2014.
You may purchase either a whole butt (each yields a little over 4 pounds on average) which will include the finishing sauce that I normally put on the pulled meat or by the pint (approximately 1 pound) which will already have the finishing sauce on it.
BBQ Sauce (not the same as the finishing sauce) may also be purchased by the pint.
Please have your orders in by Wednesday April 30th.
Please complete this form and give it to me or you can place it in my mail box at the church.
Orders can also be placed via email to Mike Dube.

State Fair – Sign Up Early!
It’s that time of year again…time to sign up to work at the N.C. State Fair, which will be held on October 17 – 27, 2013. This is the largest fundraiser for our church and we can’t be successful without everyone’s help. The amount of money that we earn is calculated on the number of slots we fill! As in past years, there will be two time slots available (one day-time and one night-time) for each of the 11 fun-filled days! We will carpool from the parking lot each morning and afternoon.
Sign-up sheets are posted in the hallway. We are asking that you schedule the days and/or nights that you can work now instead of waiting until later. We need to fill as many slots early in order to communicate the schedule with Creedmoor United Methodist Church.
