Prayer Requests Recent Requests LAKELAND AWESOME ADVENT EVENT 2014 Are you ready to have an Awesome Advent so others might have a Wonderful Christmas? This year we will be obtaining names of children/families in need and asking for volunteers to experience the wonder of giving this Christmas. Gender and ages will be available soon to purchase gifts and bring them to the church for prayer and final distribution at Christmas time. Our vision is to provide gifts and some type of meal for these families, showing what great love LUMC has for God and His people! More info soon, or contact Bernard Addison if you would like to assist in this effort. Gracelyn Daniel Barry C.
