God's Grace Food Pantry
Our food pantry serves Second Harvest Food, donated canned goods, toiletries, and "hotel items." The food pantry is open every Tuesday from 2:30 p.m. until 5:00 p.m in the basement of the Wesley Chapel.
Donations are gladly accepted at the reception desk of the Wellness Center. Please remember the pantry with your gifts and prayers; every can or dollar is well used. We always need your support. Your CONTINUED donations and financial support are vital to the success of this ministry.
Service Over Self Mission Trip- deposit due Feb. 16th
Cookeville FUMC is planning an intergenerational mission trip the week of June 17 – 23, 2012. We will serve the Memphis area in cooperation with Service Over Self (SOS).
SOS offers free home repairs to qualified homeowners. Volunteers and homeowners work together to strip and shingle roofs, replace rotten floors and leaky plumbing, repair damaged sheetrock, scrape and paint siding, and repair a host of other needs.
The camp accommodates 35 people. We have reserved all of the spaces for that week. All ages are welcome. The cost for the week is $245. A deposit of $100 is due by February 16. Scholarships are available.

Did you notice the yellow cards in your pew? These cards are one of our primary methods of generating “information flow” for our congregation’s J.O.B.S. Ministry. Please feel free to take this with you and share the J.O.B.S.
