HELP US SPREAD THE WORD!

Recently, OUMC secretary Gail Albright sent me a very kind e-mail, thanking me for taking on the task of maintaining the church's web site. She made some wonderful suggestions about ways we can use the new site...

"We will be using the information from the new website to create the church's new newsletter. Copies will be made available in the Narthex at the minimum once a month but maybe more often as the website is updated with new and important information.

"Since most of our information is available via the internet, we'd like to suggest that those of you who have internet and receive church e-mails and look at the new website, might be able to call some of the people who do not have internet and tell them everything that is going on in the church.

"It would be a wonderful ministry if we could match up one person with internet with one without internet. Once a week someone could spend 10 or 15 minutes or so chatting with someone who certainly would appreciate a call from a friend from church and pass along information. Those who do not have e-mail are our most senior members and this would also be a good way to keep track of them. If anyone is interested in being matched up with someone that does not have email, please call the church office."

There really isn't any "new newsletter", though, if you're thinking in terms of something on paper, with strict deadlines, which consumes a lot of resources, and is never quite up-to-date. No, this web site is something different — news which is almost up-to-the-minute as long as people let the church office and this webservant know what's happening. Please take full advantage of this page, and of the rest of the OUMC web site, to stay informed and to let others know what is happening in our church.

55th Anniversary Celebration

"November 13, 2010 is the 55th Anniversary of Orangethorpe United Methodist Church. We are looking to create a team of people who would be willing to plan a 55th Anniversary event. Just a simple celebration, but a CELEBRATION, nonetheless. If you would like to be a part of this event, please leave your name, telephone number or email with the church office (714.526.8317)." — Sharyl Lewis

There will be meetings of the 55th anniversary committee:

¡Fiesta Latina!

Saturday, September 18, 12:00-4pm. OUMC's Latino Ministry will be host to about 300 people from 5 other congregations. There'll be mariachi and other music, a service, and a meal. We'll celebrate the Independence Day of México and of several other Latin American nations. Rev. Fernando Santillana, who formerly served at OUMC, will preach at the worship service. The Mayor of Fullerton will give the traditional Grito de Dolores. All are invited to come join us!
