The COME Committee is excited to announce a NEW FORMAT for 2020 COME! It will be held with the District Conference scheduled for Sunday, May 3, 2020 at Life UMC, 3000 Technology Drive, Fairmont (White Hall). The District Conference will begin at 2:00 p.m.
We will receive goods and monetary gifts for the two projects listed below that day. Please make your checks payable to “WV CONFERENCE TREASURER” for any monetary donations. If you are unable to attend on that day, you can mail your donation for COME to Janice Watts, 15 Fairway Lane, Fairmont, WV 26554.
Mon Valley District has been assigned two mission projects for 2020: Upshur Parish House and The House of the Carpenter. These monies are used to feed the hungry, help with utility bills, provide child care and school supplies, sponsor work teams in the summer to repair homes, and various other mission projects. God needs each of us to do our small part in caring for our neighbors. Local parishes and Churches that sponsor fund raisers for Missions prior to May 3rd are asked to bring their donations to the District Conference marked for COME.
We hope that your Church will plan to attend the District Conference and bring your Church’s monetary donations for COME as well as “goods” for the mission projects. COME proceeds benefit the missions in West Virginia. Last year COME raised $14,579.27 and over 200 items were donated to missions. The goal for 2020 is $16,000 and at least 250 items for Missions.
For 2020, the COME Committee is suggesting that each Church in the MonValley District contribute $50 for Missions. We know that some will contribute more and some less, but remember this year Churches will NOT have to prepare a basket for the Silent Auction, bake anything, bring a White Elephant or a Live Auction item.
A “Polar Leap” is being planned to raise funds for COME. For more information on this, call the District Office.
We look forward to seeing you at the District Conference and are anxious to get your feedback on the NEW FORMAT for this year’s COME. Please remember to bring your items for Missions and your monetary collections for COME. Support the Polar Leap!
Mark May 3, 2020 at Life UMC at 2:00 on your calendar and plan to attend. NOTE THE CHANGE IN THE TIME, LOCATION, DATE AND FORMAT FOR COME.
