Please plan to come to the Craft Fair and purchase a treat from our UMW ladies. All four Circles are encouraged to participate, especially pro- viding ladies to "man" our tables all during day - in very short shifts (so you can do some shopping).

UMW Scholarship This spring our UMW honored Emily Chalk with the 8th annual Evelyn Staley Scholar-ship. Our thanks to the Staley family for supporting our church and its young adults by funding this in memory of their mother, Evelyn Staley, long-time member of Gar-ner UMC & our UMW. Congratulations to Emily as she begins her studies at UNC-Chapel Hill!
NEW CAPITAL DISTRICT FORMED
The Garner UMW is now a part of the Capital Dis-
trict. We had been called the Raleigh District for
many years. There is a new slate of District Offi-
cers, headed by Roxie Floyd, from Wilson Temple
UMC on Oberlin Road in Raleigh. Roxie was our
Vice-President in the Raleigh District and she will
do a great job as Capital President. Her Vice Presi-
dent is Becky Brock from Fremont.
Benches in Memory of Hilda Richardson
Earlier this year, the Elizabeth Rand Circle purchased
two cushioned benches for the Narthex area with me-
morial money received in memory of circle member Hilda Richardson who passed away in January 2010.
Hilda's welcoming and nurturing personality guided the decision to use the memorial money to purchase
the benches to add a touch of warmth and comfort to
the Narthex area for members and guests to enjoy.
Thanks to our guest Marsha King for providing a
great program on September 16! It was a pleasure
to have the new Capital District President, Vice
President and Membership representative with us.
