Our UMW Tag Sale Shop is now open from 11 am until 1 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Church member volunteers will be assisting shoppers so that our church staff members may complete their job responsibilities. We encourage you to invite your friends, family, coworkers and others who may not be members of our church to come and shop during those hours.

All proceeds from the Tag Sale ministry (along with the annual bazaar, memorial funds for John Falkner, and UMW candle burning) go to support the missions of United Methodist Women. These missions include: local missions, Hand-in-Hand, UMYF Soup Kitchen, UMYF mission trip, Pinkston Street Elementary weekend packs, Area Christians Together in Service (ACTS), the Boys & Girls Club, Lifeline, Community Partners of Hope, our Good Neighbor Fund, YMCA children's programs, conference missions, the Methodist Home for Children, and United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR).
