RED BAG SUNDAY | APRIL 4, 2021

Items Needed...

• Cans of Soup

• Boxes of Cereal

• Boxes of Jiffy Cornbread Mix

The Day School is very excited to host our 10th Annual St. Jude Trike-A-Thon on Friday, March 26.

Over the past eight years our Day School has raised over $26,000! This year we have set a goal of $3,000. Of course, we would LOVE to surpass that goal.

The Trike-A-Thon program teaches children safety lessons while riding their trikes or bicycles. We will begin Trike-a-Thon week during our library time learning the lessons. For this event, we will use our roller racers and ride the course in shifts with the 3’s in one parking lot and the 4’s in the other. We are inviting parents to watch. Even though we are going to be outside, we are asking parents to wear masks and practice social distancing.

It will be an educational and fun time for the kids, but also a time to raise money to send to St. Jude. A participant sponsor form is attached. This year we are also participating in the on-line option. To set up your fundraising page, visit stjude.org/trike. (Click on Find Your School and enter Broadmoor United Methodist Church Day School and go from there!) I would encourage those of you who have a Facebook page to post on there. It’s an easy way for you to get the information out to friends and family AND an easy way for them to pay on-line! OF COURSE, anyone may also make donations with check or cash! Please look over the envelope and return the parent/guardian permission slip.

This is going to be such a fun event for a great cause!

Sorry, this event is cancelled due to no in-person services being held at the church this Sunday, February 21st due to complications with the lack of water service.

We will let you know when we can reschedule the event.

CHRISTMAS IN THE SBC

Due to Covid-19 our area United Methodist churches are unable to host their annual Christmas concerts. We will miss preparing and attending our Festival de Noël. In an effort to still provide a performance in a safe way, some of our Shreveport/Bossier churches partnered together to produce a virtual Christmas concert experience.

• UMC CHRISTMAS IN THE SBC will be streamed on December 15 at 7pm.

• The stream can be found online at gracehappens.org or on the Facebook event, Christmas in the SBC.

Our wonderful Chancel Choir prepared 2 pieces.

Thanks to Kyle Boston for his wonderful solo and Dr. Rick Duet for making the filming happen!

DECEMBER 6th is RED BAG Sunday!

• Jiffy Cornbread Mix

• Green Beans
  

Please purchase ANY or ALL of these items & bring them in a RED BAG or ANY BAG on the 1st Sunday of the month.

The first is to drive thru the Friday before Sunday collection day during normal business hours. You will drive up to the office doors, call the office to let us know you are here, and a staff member will meet you outside.

Broadmoor UMC’s ministry with Common Ground.

The Missions Team is collecting loads of clean, gently used men’s clothing (no suits) and men’s shoes to restock the Common Ground clothing closet. Every Wednesday, a dedicated group of Broadmoor volunteers works the clothing closet at Common Ground. This helps prepare for Thursday evenings, when at 5:30 p.m., our friends in Cedar Grove get to “shop” in the clothing closet.

Please look for the wicker collection baskets. There will be one located by our Administrative Offices and another located in the Fellowship Area by the Sanctuary.
