Statement
A Word From Your Pastor: Go For The GOLD!
This past month was an exciting time as more than 11,000 athletes from over 200 nations participated in the Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janerio. There were a lot of
inspiring moments in the Rio 2016 Olympics from watching the world’s greatest athletes -Jamaician sprinter Usain Bolt and USA swimmer Michael Phelps go down in history as to
winning the most gold medals in their sport. Or cheering on our women’s teams as Allyson
Felix took home six gold medals in track and field, Simone Biles lead the gymnastic team in
four gold medals, swimmer Katie Ledecky as she won the 800-meter freestyle, and our
own Winston-Salem native Kathleen Baker won the silver in 100-meter backstroke.
“As God’s light on the
hill we worship, witness, make disciples for
Jesus Christ and express his love to all
people.”

It was inspiring for me to watch as many of these athletes even surprised themselves as
they pushed past their abilities to win the gold. If you asked any one of them where their
strength, endurance, and focus came from, I imagine they would tell you that they just kept
their “eye on the prize.”

This month we have some Olympic-sized opportunities to participate in at Mt. Carmel.
On Sunday, September 11th at 10:30am, we have invited personnel from our local police,
and departments, first responders, and those serving in the military in a 15th Anniversary
Memorial Service of 9/11. Chaplain Ret. Dr. Steven Turner will be our guest speaker.
Our choirs, Boy and Girl Scout troops will also be involved in the service. We will be hosting a fellowship meal following the worship service. Also this month we are beginning an
exciting new ministry called “Carmel Kids Academy” to provide an Afterschool Ministry
on Wednesdays from 2:30pm-6:00pm throughout the school year. In addition please take a
look at other opportunities in this newsletter that will grow your faith. I want to encourage
you to take your discipleship to a new level as you serve God to the best of your ability this
year!

While we may not be focused on winning gold medals in the Olympics, we do have
something more precious to win – souls for Jesus Christ! The apostle Paul wrote to the
church in Corinth:
“
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run
in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into
strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown
that will last forever.” (2 Corinthians 9:24-27)
It’s time to go for the gold! See you on the track this Sunday!
Your Team Captain,
Pastor Mary

how grateful we are for your support and
love during her sickness and death.
Pastor Mary helped prepare her and the
family with prayers and devotions. Instead

The meals, visits, card, and calls were
true acts of the “Christian Brother”.

A Note From Charlie to
Help “Catch You Up”
Dear Mt. Carmel Church Family,
It is so exciting to be part of
Mt. Carmel United Methodist
Church. I trust that each of
you sees, as I do, the same
renewed enthusiasm in all
things Mt. Carmel.
Did you see the joy on the faces of the
children and volunteers for our Vacation
Bible School the first of August?
Did you see the smiles on the faces of the
50+ children whose lives were changed
after this summers MAD Drama Camp in
June? Did you see during the closing
ceremony performance how each of those
children showed a feeling of accomplishment in what they had learned that week?
I personally missed the performance, I still
have to work once in a while, but heard
that was one “really good show”.
Have you been apart of the fellowship of
our weekly summer Backyard Bible Studies that have been enriching the lives of
those who have been able to attend?
Did you know that Mt. Carmel has played
a key role, along with Shady Grove UMC
and a number of other UM churches, in
the purchase of water storage tanks for
our brothers & sisters in Christ in Kenya?
And lets not forget the goal of raising the
funds necessary to drill a well in that same
Kenya community that some of Eluid’s
family still call home.
Did you know that our Missional Network team has been involved with helping
families affected by the devastating floods
in not only South Carolina but West Virginia as well? Just to name a few of the
Missional Network areas of outreach and
involvement.
If you are like me, you may have forgotten to make your gift to the church when
you are gone for summer vacations and
our never-ending busy family activities.
Let me invite you to make your “catch-up”
gift of your tithes and offerings to support
the Mt. Carmel Church mission and ministry as the summer season winds down.
Thank You for all you do in support of our
collective ministry through Mt. Carmel
UMC. Enjoy these last days of summer
and again Thank You for your support of
our ministries.
Sincerely,
Charlie Shore
Finance Committee Chairperson

Surf Shack, Catch the
Wave of God’s Amazing Love
Dear Mt. Carmel,
I would like to thank all of the volunteers who worked at our 2016 VBS, Surf Shack (Catch the Wave of
God’s Amazing Love). We served dinner every night at our own Surf Shack. We surfed into the Story Deck
to hear the scriptures with our puppet friends, danced and praised God in our Tidal Tunes, created adorable beach crafts and burned
off our energy during Surfing Recreation. During assembly and closing ceremonies our friend Snappy the Crab came to visit us. During the closing ceremonies, the children participated in our Surfing for Food Mission, every night our surfers brought in non-perishable
food items for Clemmons Food Panty. I am so
proud of our surfers, these children brought in a combined total of 837 cans/boxes of food, (last year
was 200) this was more than triple from last year. Way
to Hang 10 Surfers, this demonstrated the five
wave words they learned this week (Creates, Helps,
Love, Calms and Sends). This years VBS was
a great success starting with 22 children and ending
with an average of 30 children a night. This
year on the last night all the parents and grandparents
joined us to watch their little surfers perform the
dances and songs they learned this week, followed with
a small reception in the fellowship hall. Thank
you to all the volunteers. We could not have had such a
successful and wonderful time without you.
Your dedication of time and support is greatly appreciated.

Mission Engagement Team
How do we reach our neighbors? Can
you be a part of reaching out? Can you be
a Missionary?
" With evangelism, the issue isn't
where we are but our willingness to
spread God's message. Do we have the
faith to call on and believe in the Holy
Spirit to help us face our fears, our discomfort, or our insecurity about sharing the gospel of Jesus with others?"( taken form Upper Room 8-13-16 )
We have had a blessed summer reaching out to our neighbors, Drama Camp &
VBS both reaching children to share
Christ's love with them. We raised many
food items to feed hungry children this
summer. Were you a part? Can you be a
part?
Starting on the first Wednesday in September we will offer a free after school
program. We will be able to reach children
and indirectly reach their parents. Will you
help? You can be part of the solution to
spreading the love that Jesus wants
spread! For as little as 2 hours once a
month you can help a child. Please remember that Jesus said when we serve
others we are serving Him.
We have a second challenge this fall
know as the Crop Walk to raise money for
hunger here and around the world. We
need walkers and we needs funds to
reach the goal for our church of
$1000. We surpassed that goal last year
and I bet we can again this year! We
need your help so please ask your friends,
neighbors and family if they will sponsor
you in this walk. You don't have to walk to
get sponsors and if they want to write a
check to the church we can make one
check for what is raised to turn in on October 16th.
Please don't forget the first Sunday of
each month we are raising money for the
Kenya well / clean water fund. Prayer will
make all this a reality. I know you can
make a difference.
Grace and Peace

TNT is Coming to Mt. Carmel this Fall!
THURSDAY NIGHT TOGETHERNESS is a small group experience for youth and adults
where we can grow deeper in our faith. Since many of our church members will be doing a lot with
the After School Care Ministry on Wednesdays, we will no longer be having Wednesday Night
Bible Study in September. The Mission Engagement Team recommended the TNT group replace
our Wednesday night Bible Study beginning in October at 6:30pm. TNT will be a time of sharing
where we are in God's Word and in our Walk with Christ. The model for this discipleship/
accountability group comes from the Emmaus Reunion Group. However, you do not need to attend the Walk to Emmaus in order to participate in this group. For more information, please contact Lynn Harmon or Pastor Mary Miller. We hope to see you there in October!
