Adult Sunday School Break
Because of the difficulties that winter weather brings us, we will not be meeting for Sunday school during January and February. The plan is to resume Sunday School following the Peterson’s vacation in February with our first class back on Sunday, March 8th. We will resume with a Lenten Study. Study details will be available in mid-February.,

Mission Notes
We have received a thank you from Trinity Food Bank thanking us for our monthly financial gift and a special thank you for our food gifts during the holiday time. They noted that our financial gift for the year allows them to obtain 15 000 pounds of food from Feeding America. Our special donations for the Baby Pantry were also very needed. Our special offering of $168.00, taken in December to go to Family Promise to assist a family to purchase Christmas presents for the children, was a special and unexpected gift that greatly blessed a family. We received $202.00 from our Christmas Eve Candlelight Offering. We are looking to assist in a special need in our community with these monies. Should you see or know of a need, please contact one of our Mission Committee Members or Pastor Gary.

Claybanks UMC Mission support from our General Fund in 2025 included gifts to Love In The Name of Christ, Child Evangelism Fellowship, Richard Lindell Mission trip to Peru, Adult and Teen Challenge, St. Judes Children’s Hospital and Muskegon Step Up Program.

From the Treasurer
I will soon be starting to fill out the individual giving forms that get sent out each January. If you choose not to receive this information of your church donations from 2025, please let me know.

Thank you.
