UM Army Event

January 27, 2012 / Webminister / No comments

Dear UM Army Supporters:

The Bear Creek fires in September 2011 forced the postponement of this event, but we’re back on track and excited to have Scott Atnip, National Development Director for UM Army, returning to our district. Scott will be here at Linden UMC on Thursday evening, February 16, at 6pm. We’ll continue the conversation we began last summer, working together to strengthen the ministries of UM Army in our own district and beyond. We’d love for you to join us, and hope that you will invite enthusiastic laypersons from your congregation to come with you as well.

Appetizers will be served, prepared by Linden’s own Keenan Attatway, a culinary arts graduate and veteran of UM Army. We will appreciate your RSVP (to desiree@lindenumc.org) so that we might prepare appropriately for all who will be in attendance.

Please print this invitation (Click Here). It can be used on your refrigerator as a reminder. It can also be shared as an invitation to laypersons from your congregation.

I hope you’ll be able to join us.

 

Sincerely,

Rev. Kevin Young

Linden UMC

CHRISTMAS U.M. ARMY! 

What a blast!

Jacksonville FUMC was a fantastic host, and a super facility! All meals were provided by the good folks at the church, and they were DELICIOUS! We even had one of our participants prepare Indian Cuisine; curried chicken with rice. Mmmm, Mmmm, GOOD!

There were 87 participants from 12 different churches (new record). It was a mini-camp, Mon – Fri, but we completed 17 sites in three days!  We were interviewed on the radio, and had an article in the newspaper. Jacksonville is an AWESOME community!

Worship was powerful (thanks Marla!) with great music led by the Praise Band from Jacksonville FUMC.

And the weather was perfect! Only one morning were we scraping ice from the windshields.

You don’t get that during the summer!!

Great Camp! And everyone is looking forward to U.M. ARMY Christmas Camp 2012.

U.M. ARMY North Texas Golf Tournament

September 7, 2010 / Webminister / No comments

U.M. ARMY is hosting a U.M. ARMY-North Texas Golf Tournament Saturday September 25 at Ridgeview Ranch Golf Club in Plano, TX and I wanted to see if you could help us get the word out to the churches in your districts. We have had a tournament the last two years in the Houston area, but thought that a tournament in the Dallas area might be closer for some of your folks.

Attached is a brochure, and I will be happy to answer any questions that anybody might have. Since we are getting this to you so late, we will extend the early bird pricing until the regular registration date of September 13.

U.M. ARMY just completed an amazing summer, both here in the Texas Conference and in seven states across the United States. We would love your support to fulfill the plans God has for the ministry as it continues to grow and expand here in Texas and beyond!

I hope that you will consider playing or supporting the Golf Tournament or distributing this information as widely as possible.
