Do you want to make a difference in someone’s life –
without them even knowing it? Do you want to lend a
helping hand prepare or deliver a hot meal to the hungry
of Jefferson County?
Then, we have the volunteer job for you! Meals on
Wheels of Jefferson County (MOW-JC) is currently in
need of additional packers and drivers. Packers help
prepare the food bags, by filling them with meals,
drinks, and so on. Drivers are assigned delivery routes
and then take the food bags and deliver the hot meals to
the needy and homebound of Jefferson County, Monday
through Friday.
Both jobs take about 2 hours. You can work as often or
little as you like, taking a shift of a day or more.
If you are ready to help make a difference in someone’s
life, and maybe in your own in the process, please call
the MOW-JC office at 304-725-1601 between 8 a.m.
and 1 p.m. and talk to Patsy or Evelyn.
The Mission team that
went to Navajo will be
having a meeting/social
on Sunday, August 24th
at 3pm in Williams
Hall. If you’d like to
learn more about the
trip or are interested in
participating next year,
please join us!!!

Gaither Vocal Band Lead Singer – Adam Crabb
The Ministry of Hope and Asbury UMC are excited
to host Adam Crabb, Lead Singer of the Gaither
Vocal Band, at a special Gospel Concert on Friday,
August 22nd at 7 p.m. Adam, hailing from Beaver
Dam, KY grew up singing Southern Gospel as part
of the very successful Crabb Family. Since 2007, he
has pursued a solo singing career until this past
spring when he was asked by Bill Gaither to join the
Gaither Vocal Band as its lead vocalist. Doors will
open at 6 p.m., concert at 7 p.m. and then a time to
meet Adam afterwards. This concert is open to the
public and admission is free, however, there will be
a LOVE offering to benefit Jefferson County Community Ministries and Forgotten Children Ministries
of Jefferson County.
The Trustees have set aside
special funds to match all
donations to the “Build on
the Blessings” program.
For every dollar donated, the
special fund will contribute
50% to the campaign (you
give $2 & special fund will
give a $1).
Our goal is to retire the outstanding asbestos abatement loan ($122k), enabling us to move forward with
the Asbury Sanctuary Remodel Initiative.
Please contact Keith Berkeley, Bobby Jones or the
Church Office with any questions.
