Online Shopping

 Lots of online retailers will give a percentage of your purchase to Strawbridge UMC through the UMCmarket!   All you need to do is visit www.umcmarket.org and register. Specify the church, "Kingwood Strawbridge".  Then when you're ready to buy, just log into your UMCmarket account and shop at any of the partner retailers and, a percentage of the sale is given to the church. We need $100 in the account before we get a check, so the more the site is used the more the church benefits.

 

Shopping has never been so easy and you don't have to leave home, fight the crowds or find that perfect parking spot!

 

Sign up today at www.umcmarket.org.

Upcoming Ladies Event 

Men of Strawbridge -

Are you looking for the perfect gift for the wife, (mother, sister, aunt, daughter, grandmother, or granddaughter) that is hard to please or already has everything?

Why not give her the gift of the 2015 Women's Retreat?

For only $195.00, she will enjoy a weekend away with other women getting to know each other and God better in a relaxing countryside setting near Brenham the weekend of February 20 - 22, 2015.

Please consider this option when thinking about what material "things" you can buy her. This gift will last forever.

Registration forms can be found in the church hallway off of the Narthex. Deadline to sign up is January 9, 2015. Questions? Contact Cheryl Burnett at 281-360-5127 or cheryldburnett@hotmail.com
