THANK YOU FROM UMW
"Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." 2 Corinthians 9: 7.
On May 29 in the Searchers Sunday School class, Willis Alderson was our teacher for the morning's lesson, which covered 2 Corinthians:8-9. During the class I was reminded of the warm responses and generosity regarding my personal outreach and appeal to a few members and nonmembers of VUMC, such as Shepherd Groups 2, 22, 31 and UMW's Martha, Charity and Love Circles. My reference of the above verse is a way of thanking you for your response to my attempt to assure that the UMW "Adopt A Mission" fundraiser for 2022 would be the success it has been. A special thank you goes to those of you I did not personally reach out to but you also generously supported our fundraiser for local missions. United Women in Faith (a recent change to our official name) is an organization drawn by God's love and united in our sisterhood to improve the lives of women, children and youth.
Thank you one and all,
Wilma Gunn, UMW Treasurer
