1 Village UMC Family, The last six months have been a blast for me. Many friends asked me, before I came to Village, if I wanted to be back in the local church, since the main part of my job was administration and strategic planning for many groups of the conference. My answer always was, "I miss people... I miss the conversations, getting to know people, praying together, in other words, I miss sharing life together." Well, my prayer was answered when God sent me (and us, the pastoral team) to Village UMC. I enjoy sharing life with you all and, as I have mentioned to many of you, each Sunday I come out of church with a big smile. God has been good with all of us. I give thanks to God for the past six months! Now 2018 is about to start (I can't believe 2017 is gone!) and the good and hard work needs to continue. God indeed has big plans for Village UMC. We are in the middle of a thriving neighborhood. God's help, we will continue to reach out to our community this new year. God is working in and through us! This strength comes from a close relationship with God and being empowered by the Holy Spirit. Therefore, I invite all of you to engage in any way you feel called by God with opportunities to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ. Perhaps this growth can be achieved by joining a Bible study, either Wednesday night or Sunday morning. Or maybe it is by joining the choir. Another way may be to volunteer for Village Cafe or Mobile Meals. A new opportunity will be the after school program we want to launch by February. This program will need people to drive, cook, tutor (homework and reading) or share a skill you may have with these young children. We have a lot of work coming in 2018, but I am glad this task has been entrusted to Village UMC, because together we will answer God's calling! If the last six months have been a blast, I can only imagine what the next year will be like! I look forward to continue sharing life together. Many blessings, Carlos
2 Page 2 Church Finance Update Every year since 2014, pledges have declined and the corresponding budget for VUMC has decreased until now! We are thankful to report that pledges for 2018 have increased 2.7% over While this is admittedly a small percentage, any movement in a positive direction is to be celebrated! And that s not all! Two donations were received in the 4th quarter of 2017 that have lessened the concerns of church leadership regarding major repairs or capital improvements, not to mention simply paying monthly bills. A little breathing room has been missing in these past few years so it is all the more appreciated. VUMC s paying of Conference Apportionments was impacted dramatically in 2016 when for the first time in recent years, only 36% of apportionments were paid rather than the usual 100%. This year has been much better; we were able to pay 66% thanks in part to the generosity of individual designated donations and the year end gifts. As you know from your own life experience, it s hard to dream big when you have trouble paying your monthly utilities. This has been the tension here; so much that we want to do, but so little in discretionary funds. We are optimistic that the trending increase will continue well into 2018, and that some of our dreams can be realized as this year unfolds. Thank you for your faithfulness and continued support of your church family. Single Parent Support Network The Single Parent Support Network Christmas celebration was a resounding success. Fellowship Hall was packed as we hosted well over 200 adults and children from our community. A special thanks to Rhonda Thomas who leads this ministry, and to everyone who volunteered for this event. The main word that was heard describing the evening was fun, which is a great way to think of church! Do you know a family who could benefit from being a part of our Single Parent Support group? Please tell them about this growing ministry at Village. The group meets every Wednesday evening at 6:30 PM. They will be loved and encouraged, childcare is available, and they can come early for our free dinner at Village Café, so no rushing around to feed everyone before leaving home! Lighthouse Kidz Singers Are Back! Lighthouse Kidz Singers have shared anthems with traditional worship services during the fall semester. Rehearsals for the spring semester begin on January 10. Children in Kindergarten through Grade 5 meet each Wednesday in the Jungle Room upstairs from 6 to 6:30 p.m. They learn about the Bible and Christian faith as they develop their singing skills. All children in that age group are encouraged to become Lighthouse Kidz Singers.
3 Quilt Winner Congratulations to the winners of the quilts that were given away during the UMW Christmas Brunch on December 2, Winners were: Choir Love quilt Linda Prentice French Braid quilt Letty Eby Soccer quilt - Eric Wolfinger Thanks very much to the Stitch-n-Sew group for their hard work, and to all who purchased tickets for this fundraiser. Page 3 Boxtops YES, Soup Labels NO Look for Boxtops for Education official coupons on food packages, tissue boxes, etc. Clip them out and bring them to a bag hanging on a bulletin board in the hallway leading to Fellowship Hall. The boxtops are donated to Andrew Johnson Elementary School for supplies and equipment. Soup labels are no longer being accepted. Thanks for helping in our efforts to support Johnson Elementary in this small way. Winter Jam One of our youth highlight events, Winter Jam, will return on March 17th, 2018, and the planning phase is getting serious; we d like to have our group set and tickets purchased in February so read on! We had a great time last year when we purchased early admission privileges so we would like to do that again. We can join in the 3:30 pm door opening as long as we have a minimum of 10 in our group. Cost will be $41.99 and includes a t-shirt, seats of our choice prior to general admission doors, and other collectibles. The lineup has been announced and performers will be some of our favorites including: Skillet, Kari Jobe, Building 429, comedian John Crist, KB, NewSong, Jordon Feliz, Dan Bremnes, Mallary Hope, Westover, and speaker Nick Hall. This concert is one of our favorite events of the year and you ll have a blast if you come along. Hope to see everyone there!
