Souper Bowl Event

Leave a Comment

Souper Bowl Weekend
March 6-7, 2021 

In support of
DeBows Food Pantry Ministry  

While we cannot celebrate Souper (Super) Bowl Sunday quite the same as in years past, we can still have our private household parties safely.  We will miss the comradery in Fellowship Hall, but we can still enjoy homemade soups, made by members of our own congregation.  And we can do all this while supporting our Food Pantry Ministry, which serves those in need in our community.
 
This year’s Souper Bowl event will take place over two days: March 6 & 7.
 
You will pre-order your soup online, then you can pick up your soup on Saturday, March 6, between 12 – 1 PM or after the 10 AM worship service on March 7.  The Saturday pickup will be via a drive-thru, non-contact process. You will be able to give your donation when you pick up your soup.  Please make any checks payable to the church.  Your donations directly support the DeBows Food Pantry Ministry and are tax deductible. Please donate as the Holy Spirit moves you.
 
Available soups to order are:

* Chicken Slick
* Chicken Chili 
— Chef: Guy Raymond

* Cream of Broccoli w/Cheddar
— Chef: Christine Raymond  

* Cheesy Chicken Chowder
— Chef: Jill Palmer  

* Turkey Minestrone
— Chef: Steve Wesolovski  

* Butternut Squash
— Chef: Jean Iannacone  

* Tomato Basil Cheese Tortellini
* Mushroom Barley
— Chef: Anita Chichester 

You may order your soup online using the below link. Please order no later than February 21.  Our soup makers need time to prepare the orders and there may be limited quantities of certain soups. Orders will be reserved in the order received.
 
NOTE: All soups will be delivered frozen in 1-pint containers. You may enjoy now or save it for some future date.

Different process, same goal: work together as a church, stay connected with each other, and support our mission to feed the hungry in our community.  The last 10 months have been hard on many people in our nation, our community, and even for some in our congregation.  Let us praise the Lord that we are able to continue find ways to share His love with those around us. “Thank You” for your support!

Care Team

Happy fall everyone!
I am very excited to share with you about our new Care Team at DeBows UMC!  The Care Team was created to work together to help meet the needs of all of our members. A similar team was created at our sister church Pleasant Grove UMC.  This team of church members will look to:

  • Bring communion to all of our shut-in/home bound members every month.
  • Meet once a month with Pleasant Grove UMC to pray together for all of the prayer requests lifted.
  • Welcome and engage with visitors to help them get connected with the ministries/members of the church, and collect contact information so we can follow up with them.
  • Keep track of members who have been away for a period of time, and reach out to these members with a phone call and/or note.
  • Send cards out monthly to our home bound members.

This team also functions as a small group and ministers to each other as we look to care for the members of our church. If you would like to join our Care Team, we would love to have you join us!  Please feel free to reach out to Pastor Denise for more information.  The next Care Team Prayer Meeting at DeBows will be on Tuesday, October 15 at 1:00pm.

Thank You and God Bless

DeBows UMC would like to acknowledge the anonymous gentleman, who for the second time in the past several months, has generously provided Stop & Shop gift cards to benefit the DeBows Food Pantry.  In the card that accompanied this last donation, he quoted Proverbs 19:17; “He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD and that which he hath given will He pay him again”.  The DeBows community of faith would like to say THANK YOU and a may GOD BLESS YOU.  We are sure the people served by the Food Pantry echo these sentiments for your living testimony of God’s love.

Our Mission is to make disciples for Jesus Christ by proclaiming Him as Lord and Savior, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, be His representative in our community through worship, education and service.
