Fwd: Prison Awareness & UMC Hymnals





Prison Awareness is Sunday, February 7, 2010.
There is a lot of good Christian ministry taking place within the prisons' walls.

At the last Common Cup Council meeting, Pastor Terry Heck told of a need for hymnals at the Nelsonville OH (Hocking Correctional Facility) prison.

 She is asking the Common Cup Churches to consider purchasing 50 hymnals by March 31, 2010 so they may used for Easter.

Checks need to be made out to Bellbrook UMC and they will place the order.  The plan is to order The United Methodist Hymnal  (the same pew edition which we use every week) and  have them shipped directly from the publisher.



Please consider adding this request to your bulletin on Feb. 07.
You could use the following words which were in Bellbrook's bulletin:

The chapel at the men's correctional facility in Nelsonville, Ohio needs hymnals for worship.  Through March 31, there is a 25% discount on hymnals making the cost $14.25.  If you are willing to buy hymnals for these worship services, please contact Terry Heck, pastor@bellbrookumc.org or 657-4534.
