Ministry Opportunities
Meals on Wheels Need YOU!!!
About 25 years ago, the United Methodist Women at Bethlehem joined the Church Women of Franklin to start the Meals on Wheels program. Today, that program serves 120 meals every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Bethlehem is responsible for the third Monday in each month. There are two teams of delivery people, so each driver only delivers six times per year. The city is divided into six routes with each route delivering approximately 20 meals. Teams of two leave from First UMC in Franklin at 11:15-11:30 and finish between 12:30-12:45. Some people do this on their lunch hour. This ministry needs a few new drivers and a list of people willing to substitute. Most of the people that receive meals are elderly and on fixed incomes. Equally important is the opportunity to offer a friendly greeting and let these people know God's people care about them. If this sounds like a good way to spend six hours a year, contact Rebecca Little at
  Buy and Use Kroger Gift Cards to Benefit Youth
The Youth are selling Kroger Gift Cards. Each card has a beginning balance of $20.00 on it. Any dollar amount can be added at the grocery store before you begin to check out. Complete instructions are available with the cards. The cards may be purchased in the Gathering Space each Sunday. Remember, there is no surcharge for using a Kroger Gift Card. Kroger pays us 4% on each dollar spent using a gift card. Contact Janet at 591-9275 for more details or special orders of cards for gifts.
