It's Time to Decorate the Pumpkin Patch!

Please help decorate the Patch on Saturday, Sept 30, at 9 am. A lot of help is needed to transform the empty pavilion and plain old field into a welcoming, fun, adventurous pumpkin place. Questions? Don't hesitate to contact Cassie Berg (215-479-9037 or Bergcassie60@gmail.com).

The Pumpkins Are Coming & We Need Your Help!

Saturday, Oct 7 is our first delivery of pumpkins for the season. Our annual Pumpkin Patch will be open from Oct 7 through Oct 31 or until the last pumpkin is sold!

We need your help unloading the pumpkins and staffing the patch for the month. You can sign up for your shifts online at clearviewumc.org/pumpkins. This year, we are trying an online-only volunteer sign-up. We will set up some computers in the East Wing for you to use before or after worship. We will also have some people there to assist you should you need some help. You can also contact the Church Office for assistance or grab a tech-savvy friend or family member.

We need cashiers, pumpkin pricers, greeters, and pumpkin turners. There is a place for everyone to serve regardless of age or strength. Come hang out in the patch and share the love of God with our community!

The Bloodmobile Results

Thank you for being so supportive of last week’s blood drive. Our goal was five participants, and we had four. Together, we donated five units (3 whole blood units & 2 red blood cell units). Please mark your calendar for Jan 21 and plan to give the gift of life that day.

The Great American Teach-In at Lealman Avenue Elementary

The Great American Teach-In is a part of Pinellas County Schools’ annual American Education Week celebration. It is a special opportunity to visit Lealman Avenue Elementary and share your knowledge and experience with a new generation. The 2023 event is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov 15. Opportunities are available from 9 am to 2:30 pm, and you may choose to spend 30 minutes, a couple of hours, or the entire day. Your schedule and the teachers’ needs determine the amount of time you volunteer. Whatever the length of your visit, you can make a difference. And, as thousands of previous Teach-In participants have discovered, the experience is truly rewarding. Information and sign-up sheets are available in the East Wing. Please contact Angela Malykhin (570-3020 or malykhina@pcsb.org), for more details.
