New Fellowship Coordinator Needed!
DUMC is looking for a new Fellowship Coordinator starting asap. The job is fairly simple - arrange which one of our many wonderful Fellowship hosts (there is a list) is willing to provide snacks each Sunday (two hosts per week for the two different services). This can be done on a weekly basis or once a month depending on personal preference. Additionally, it can be done by phone, email, or online sign-up. If this is a job you would be willing to take on, contact Anna in the office at davisumc@davisumc.org.

| 2. Help Wanted!
Are you someone who enjoys children and who has been affirmed for your gifts with children? The DUMC Children's Program could use your help this summer! Here is what is needed:
- 1 helper every Sunday during the summer. Sunday School assistants are responsible for helping the children participate in their activities in a more traditional Sunday School setting. Does not require the ability to sit on the floor!
Interested in helping?
Contact Jeri Viera Dahlke at (916) 947-1102 or kidsministry@davisumc.org

3. Get Acquainted with Your New Pastor
Imagine what a challenge it is for your new pastor to get acquainted with everyone in his congregation - not just to match names and faces, but actually to know something about each individual! To make it easier for Pastor Brandon Austin, there will be a series of small social get-togethers connecting the pastor with small groups of people.
If you are interested in attending such a gathering, please sign up in the Fellowship Hall after either service so that you can be contacted when dates are set. Available dates will begin during the summer and continue into the fall.

4. Worship Changes
A new pastor brings new perspectives and fresh ideas, and this coming Sunday you will see a few changes in our worship services. Most of them are small changes but there will be a more significant change in the way we handle announcements. We will not have "open mic" announcements at the start of the service. If you need an announcement to be made, you will need to submit it to the office by noon on Thursday of the week before. Pastor Brandon will either make the announcement himself during the service, or it will be added to the slideshow that runs before and after the service.
