Haiti Disaster Relief
In light of the recent disaster in Haiti, a special North Texas Conference fund number has been created to help members and friends offer emergency financial assistance to the people of Haiti via the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR). Make your church checks payable to LCUMC and on the memo line put “Fund 277 Haiti.” 100% of private donations goes towards emergency relief efforts.

Home Group Study
Pastor Dyan will be leading a 9-wk home group study on the Gospel of Luke through the months of Feb. & March. The study will cover 2-3 chapters per week and will focus on the historical context and theological implications of the text.

Youth Mission Trip Fund Raiser
The Youth are having a Mission Trip Fundraiser on January 31st.

All you have to do is take this flyer with you to Applebee's that day for lunch or dinner. Have a great meal, and then Applebee's will contribute 15% of the bill to this years mission trips. It is that easy.

So we want to get as many people there as possible. You can help us by printing this pdf and giving it to as many friends and neighbors as you can. The more people that have the flyers on that day, the more money is raised to send us on missions throughout the year.

Thank you all so much for your support.
