Members, Regular Attendees,
and Visitors, please fill out the
attendance sheet in the teal
folder at the end of your pew. Pass the folder to your fellow
worshipers then return it to the center aisle. First Time Visitors: please
also complete a blue “CONNECT” card in the pew rack in front of

Packet at the Welcome Table before you leave. If you have special
needs, please see one of our ushers.
Christ UMC offers a staffed nursery from 8:30am until after the 11am
service, in room 21, in the preschool hallway. Children, birth through 4
years old, can be dropped off and picked up as needed throughout
the morning. If you would rather keep your child with you, an
unstaffed space, in rooms 15-17, is available in case you need a
diaper change, a quiet place to rock, or some space to move
around. The worship service is broadcast through a speaker.
For more information on these and other happenings at CUMC, please pick up a copy of this
month’s Evangel in the lobby or go to our website at www.cumclansdale.org and click on the
Newsletter box for this month’s newsletter.
Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN) is back at CUMC! During the
month of June, we need volunteers to help welcome our families and
we would love to have your help! There are three ways in which you
can help: By preparing or purchasing a meal that you will share with
our guests, by transporting our guests to and from their daytime
location or to be an overnight host to our guests, which means you
get to wear your pajamas to church for a sleepover!! There are sign-
up calendars available on the IHN table in the narthex, along with
coordinators who can answer any questions you may have.
Coordinators for IHN include: Host coordinators: Chad Hussein
(chadhussein@gmail.com), Sherry Harris (SJCH@comast.net); Meal
Coordinators: Gwen Diamond (gwen@tgkdiamond.com, Becky Sitler
(lovelast4now@hotmail.com); Transportation Coordinators: Jim Barlick
(jbarlick@gmail.com), Tina Eckhart (TTEckhart@outlook.com);
Overnight Coordinator: Brian Dalbow (briandalbow@gmail.com)
We are excited to have a Christ UMC outing to the Lehigh Valley Iron
Pigs! A fun family event for all. We will be going to the game
on Saturday, August 25th at 6:35pm. This is Salute to Philly Night. It
includes appearances by the Philly Phanatic and Philadelphia
Inspired Fireworks. Tickets are $11/ticket (Children 2 and under are
free IF they sit on a lap). The ticket also includes a $2 ball park credit
that can be used for food or souvenirs. If you would like, you can also
pre-purchase a parking pass for $5. Please sign up in the lobby or
contact Nikki Young in the church office at 215-855-1643
or nikki.young@cumclansdale.org. Don't delay, commit to this fun
outing TODAY!
One more Sanctuary Flower Sponsor is needed for May 20th. Please
contact the office to sponsor this arrangement ($20).
We have recently learned that the Lansdale Acme will be closing in
June. This is a store we have grocery gift cards for. We would like to
sell through our stock of gift cards and then will no longer be offering
those cards. If you shop there we encourage you to help us by
purchasing grocery gift cards in the lobby on Sunday
mornings. Remember all gift card sales help to pay down our
mortgage!
A Drama Director is needed for VBS skits. Please contact Pastor Tawny
if you are interested in this role.
There is a need for volunteers to dismantle the Craft Fair on Sunday
afternoon, May 13. Please let Pastor Nicholson know if you are
available to help.
Join the CUMC Grass Cutting Team. Is your Spiritual Gift mowing the
lawn? If so, we have the group for you! Our team mows the lawn at
the church between May and October. Each team member usually
commits to helping about once per month, but one-time pinch
mowers are also welcome. For more information and to sign-up,
please contact Tim Weir at timweir99@gmail.com.
