VBS
VBS was a great success.
We had 32 kids and as many adults from BUMC and Bellbrook
Presbyterian Church leading activities.
The response was wonderful and the children had lots of fun
learning about God and our planet!
Pick up your copy of “Starship Stories” on Sunday to see
what happened!
Special thanks
to Nancy Pestian and all the volunteers!
Radical Hospitality…..
In 2012 Bellbrook UMC will celebrate its’ 200th
birthday! In anticipation of that big event, we would like to start
planning the celebration NOW. We would also like to put together a
history of the church which includes all of the stories our members
and friends have of past ministers, activities and people.
Start digging in your brains for those stories you would
like to share. If you
would like to help with this project or the celebration plans
please contact Mary,
office@bellbrookumc.org so we can get started!

BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
In order to help support our local school district,
Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Schools, we have a collection box in the foyer
for people to donate the Box Top coupons that are found on commonly
purchased foods. They are everywhere - next time you buy a
box, look for the little coupon on it! Just cut it out, keep
them together, and at your convenience, bring them in to the church
and put them in the box. When they are redeemed by the school,
they receive cold, hard cash for each one!! There are also
coupons available on their website for products that carry the Box
Top coupon, so you get to save some money too!

Thank you for supporting our schools and our kids!!
