🌟 YOU’RE INVITED! 🌟
Help us celebrate and honor the incredible ministry of Ann Trimble-Ray and her husband Roger!

For the past six years, Ann has served as our District Lay Leader with passion, grace, and Spirit-filled leadership. Her dedication has shaped our lay ministries, strengthened leaders across the Northwest District, and blessed us immeasurably. We are deeply grateful for her faithful service.

As Ann and her family prepare to move to Altoona, IA before the end of the year, we want to gather as a district to say thank you and offer our blessings as they begin this new chapter.

📅 Sunday, November 23
🕑 2:00 p.m.
📍 Early United Methodist Church
402 Hickory St, Early, IA 50535

🍽️ The district will provide the main dish.
🍰 Congregations are invited to bring a dessert to share!

Let’s come together in gratitude, love, and celebration for Ann and Roger. Their ministry has been a gift—let’s send them off with the appreciation they so richly deserve.

Thank you, Ann, for leading with heart, faith, and courage. Our prayers surround you and your family as you transition to your new home in Altoona. 💛🙏

Advent begins Sunday, November 30, and we want our church to shine with the hope and joy of the season!
Right after worship on November 23, we’ll gather to transform our sanctuary for Christmas.

Please plan to stay and lend a hand—whether you can hang a wreath, fluff a tree, untangle garland, or simply offer cheerful company, your presence will make a difference!

Let’s fill our church with beauty, warmth, and the spirit of Advent—together. 🎁✨
