Elam United Methodist Church

Children ages 5-12 years old are invited to attend a fun club for boys and girls at Brandywine Summit Camp, 119 Beaver Valley Road, Chadds Ford, PA from August 5-9, 3:00-4:30 p.m. Similar to VBS, it is sponsored by Child Evangelism Fellowship, a Bible-centered ministry serving in every region of the world. For more information, please contact Beth McCarrick at 484-432-5527 or admeam@aol.com, or visit www.cefdelco.com and click on the Summer Programs button. Parents are welcome to attend.

Our next Mosaic Sunday is July 28th.

During the hour after service, we have a coffee fellowship followed by several opportunities to serve, including a Loves of Love Station, an opportunity to make cards for the Card Ministry (Conference Room), or come down to the Pierce Family Life Center kitchen where we will be packing meals for Caring for Friends. We can always use your help. Thank you. 

22 Park Avenue Swing Band is playing Rose Tree Park on Sunday, July 28, at 7:30 pm. Bring a lawn chair or blanket to
the natural sloping amphitheater and enjoy the sounds of the big band era.

It's time to think of Christmas in July. Just a reminder that Elam's Third Annual Glitz (jewelry)
and Decor (gently used Christmas decorations) Sale is on Saturday, November 2, from 8am-3pm. Please place your donations on the stage at any time, and mark your calendars for this fun event.
Thank you.

We are happy that so many of you are able to change your schedules and truly enjoy the summer, but wanted to remind everyone it is important for Elam that you maintain your giving throughout the summer months. Unfortunately, the lights and other expenses don’t get a summer break.
Don’t forget that you may also give electronically by going to Elam’s webpage and clicking “Donate online.” Thank you for your generosity. May you have a wonderful summer.

The Loaves of Love Food Pantry thanks you for your continued support. Your generous donations of non- perishable food and paper products are truly appreciated. For the next four weeks, let's focus on donations of cereal. Our shelves look full until we distribute 68 boxes of cereal to our current 34 families monthly. Of course, it is OK if you prefer to donate something else. Thank you.

OUR ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS is on hiatus for the summer and will return in the fall. If interested in joining us when it resumes, just go to room 105, which is located in the corridor next to the offices.

Sunday School and nursery for infants through sixth grade are available during the worship service. It is held in the Children’s Day Out rooms (follow hallway past restrooms all the way to the end to room 107). Miss Bonnie and Miss Joy will be waiting for you there.
