The UMW need and appreciate your support to make the 2019 “No Bake” Bake Sale a success. Simply give your contribution to Pat Douglas, Susan Maddux, Margo Hinsdale, or Angie Rose OR send it to SCUMW, P.O. Box 158, Spring City, TN 37381. Please make checks payable to Spring City United Methodist Women and note on the memo line - “No Bake” Bake Sale. Thank you, and God bless you!

JOIN US FOR A NEW BIBLE STUDY called Foundations of Freedom.

No book is required. This study begins Wednesday, February 27, at 10:00 a.m. in the Fellowship Hall.

35 But someone will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?" 36 Fool! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies. 37 And as for what you sow, you do not sow the body that is to be, but a bare seed, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain. 38 But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body. 42 So it is with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable. 43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body. 45 Thus it is written, "The first man, Adam, became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 46 But it is not the spiritual that is first, but the physical, and then the spiritual. 47 The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man is from heaven. 48 As was the man of dust, so are those who are of the dust; and as is the man of heaven, so are those who are of heaven. 49 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we will also bear the image of the man of heaven. 50 What I am saying, brothers and sisters, is this: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
