Mission trip news:

PUMC will be sending two teams on mission trips this summer:

1. PUMC junior and senior high youth will join a Group Work Camp in Rochester, NH in July to help repair the homes of the needy and the elderly.
2. PUMC senior high youth and adults are going with Mexico Outreach to Ensenada, Mexico in August. They will be joining in ministry with the Mexican church to minister to the children of Ensenada and bring the gospel of Jesus Christ to them.

Even if you can’t travel far away, you can support the missions of this church and the PUMC Youth and Adults who will be serving this summer. During the month of March, Youth will be offering “Stock in PUMC Missions” during fellowship hour. Consider joining in the effort to help cover the costs of these mission trips and to pray for our missionaries.

TGIF News!

Teen Group in fellowship continues this month, but with a special twist. Come out to our Beach Party on March 19^th and warm up after months of winter chill.

When is it? Every 1^st and 3^rd Friday nights, 7-10 p.m.

Who’s it for? Youth 12-20. You and people you want to be with

Where is it? At PUMC, fellowship hall, classrooms, etc. (we move around)

We continue to look for more adult chaperones for TGIF. This is an easy way to get to know the youth of our church. Sign up for one evening at a time, or for several. If you’re interested, contact Pastor Rebecca, pastorrebecca@pokumc.org.
