16 Thursday, July 20, 2017 5th Annual Hymns for the Hungry The Shopper GRAHAM LIVESTOCK COMMISSION, LLC Sale Every Monday Starting at 12:00 Noon, Graham, Texas (940) 549-0078 Five years ago, the First United Methodist Church of Bowie had a vision for helping to feed the hungry in their community. Their vision led to an event called “Hymns for the Hungry,” which includes all surrounding churches/organizations to share their love with others through music. The FUMC’s Outreach Team decided to try something new this year. Why not ask different churches each year to “host” this event? The plan worked! Bowie’s Lighthouse Assembly of God Church, located at 2998-TX 59, will be our 1st host! This event will take place on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Who can help? YOU can! Each church or organization that would like to participate needs to plan for 2-3 songs, share in donating the food and drinks that will be served, and provide a couple of cakes for a live auction. “Meal deals” of a hot dog, chips, and drink will be served for $5.00. Donations will be taken for dessert. Admission fee is $1.00 per person. ALL proceeds will go directly to “God’s Table,” which is an outreach provided by First Free Will Baptist Church. This outreach feeds approximately 25-40 people 6 days a week! Please decide to join this event. You will leave feeling the love and joy that only God can provide. If your church has a service on Wednesday, let this event be your “church” for just this one Wednesday. For more information or to sign your church up, please call or text Jarae Scruggs @ 940-841-1212. You may also call the FUMC office directly at 940-872-3384.
