Huge Water "Giveaway" -
Chapin United Methodist Church (CUMC) is planning a huge water "Giveaway" for Chapin's annual Labor Day Parade September 2. Guy and MJ Sorrell are putting together an incredible team to serve water and encouragement to all the folks who are attending this year's Chapin Labor Day Parade. Last year, CUMC gave out over 600 bottles. This year, CUMC is giving away 1,500 bottles. The Evangelism Team is building an "army" to dispense water, man the booth, and provide a presence of Connecting - Growing - Sharing to the Chapin community. If you would like to participate, please sign up by emailing the Sorrells at guyandmj@gmail.com.
