For the tulips, you can choose pots of either yellow or purple tulips, each pot costing $10.00, with 6 flowering bulbs planted in each pot. The deadline for both the tulip orders and the Mission of Mercy donations is Sunday, March 26, 2023. Printed order forms are now available on the table in the lobby and can be downloaded here.

"Service Sunday" - New Opportunities for Service!
In keeping with GUMC's motto, "Love, Pray, Serve", we will begin a new program in November that will provide regular opportunities for service to others throughout the year. "Service Sunday" will take place on the 3rd Sunday of the month during most months of the year and will replace the previous "Fifth Sunday" idea. Service activities will take place after the service and will vary from month to month. On the third Sunday of December (December 18th) we hope to deliver Christmas baskets to several families in need in the Glyndon/Reisterstown area. If you know of a family who is in need in our community, please let Pastor Dong Eun know. Join us for a variety of "Service Sunday" activities on 3rd Sundays throughout the coming year!

If you would like to help out, bring your frozen or fresh casseroles to our church kitchen (place in freezer) the last Sunday of each month, or any Sunday you would like to help. We will see they are delivered along with food from other churches in our community.
