A Word from the Mission Team
The Mission Team has placed boxed in the Narthex to collect items to send to our troops in Afghanistan. This will be the only time this year to ask for these items. The troops can’t go to the store to buy items. They face changes each day not only the enemy but the weather. What better way to celebrate Memorial Day than this! Listed below are some suggested items:
Deodorant - Unscented
Hand Sanitizer - Unscented
Wet Wipes - Unscented
Shaving Cream - Unscented
Hard Candy (no chocolate)
Beef Jerkey
Shampoo/Cream Rinse
Foot Powder/Regular Powder
Calling cards
Cash donations for postage

Every Sunday morning at eleven o clock the most exciting place to be is in the sanctuary of the Cahaba Height United Methodist Church located in the heart of downtown Cahaba Heights. If you are not attending you are missing what is expected of all Christian believers and that is that we fellowship with one another.
God is blessing every Sunday. It is a privilege to look out and see new faces each and every week. Thank you for giving us a chance to someday become your church. I love the excitement that happens each week when people ask if I know someone. Every time someone visits it keeps us on our best behavior.
Sunday, May 20th, is a special day in the life of our church. It is a Sunday of New Directions. I am personally taking the time to invite you, your family and to ask you to give me the names and numbers of anyone else I need to extend an invitation. There are wonderful opportunities in store for Cahaba Heights as we strive to be the church God has called us to be.
I’ll make you a promise. I will not ask you for any money other than the regular offering and I won’t surprise you at your house with a visit. If you are attending regularly now, have attended in the past, live in the community or are just looking for a great place to worship I hope you will put May 20th on your calendar.
My goal is to leave you wondering about what New Directions really means. To find out you need to be here. I hope you will prayerfully consider making us a part of your worship that Sunday. I can promise you will be surprised, blessed, and I hope touched by the spirit of the Living God. Plan now to be a part. We are a no excuse church we want to see you here!
Make plans now, May 20th is just around the corner!
Rev. Russell G Glasgow
