Happy Easter from
Prosper United Methodist Church
PUMC is Growing and We Need Your Help!
Our congregation has experienced rapid growth this year-- 13 new members over 12 Sundays!  Just about every ministry, from youth to Bible study, to AA, to Scouting, to worship, is growing.  Your Church Council leadership team is seeking ways to accommodate new growth as well as long-term sustainability.  We need your feedback on a couple of areas.  Please go to our online survey and answer a few questions for us.  Thank you for your support and feedback-- it is always appreciated!  Click here
2nd Annual BBQ Fundraiser
Last year Pamela and Greg Walpole and their family prepared an amazing bar-be-que lunch for the church.  This year they have partnered with Jack Duncan, a new member of PUMC and a grill master himself.  Tickets are on sale now: Adults are $10, kids $5.  Stay after worship for a great time of fellowship and delicious food!

We are so grateful for April Arnold and Rhonda Ray, who have done an outstanding job planning and coordinating our wonderful Wednesdays!  The meals have been delicious, the kids have had fun and learned, and many PUMC folks came for dinner every week for extra fellowship.  Make sure to find a Wednesday volunteer-- in the kitchen, on the playground, or in the classroom-- and say THANK YOU for continuing this great PUMC tradition!  Join us!
