RUF Ministry at USF: The RUF ministry at USF began the year with 185 students at their first meeting, including 151 freshmen! This far exceeds any budgetary planning that Aldo had foreseen. For the next several weeks (8/9 – 8/31) we are taking up a special collection to help Aldo minister to this enormous influx of students into the RUF. You may give on Sub Splash or give by check made out to WPC, memo to RUF at USF.
WMW Bible Study: The Fall Ladies Bible Study will begin on September 15th with a morning study (10:00 AM) and an evening study (7:00 PM). Both studies will meet in the Fellowship Hall. We will be studying Trusting God by Jerry Bridges. Bridges will teach us to “explore the scope of God’s power over nations, and even the details of your life, you will find yourself trusting Him more completely – even when life hurts”. Sign up is on the bulletin board in the Narthex.

Sugar free cake mixes are sold in grocery stores and Walmart.” MOW also needs a new driver. The driver needs to arrive on Monday mornings (holidays also) by 10:30 and should be done around 12:00. Call Mary Heydon for more information: 813-850-2881.

Get Acquainted Brunch: The Women’s Ministry at Westminster (WMW) will be hosting their annual Get Acquainted Brunch on Saturday, September 12th at 11:00 AM.

WMW Missions Collections: The Women’s Ministry at Westminster supports three different missions in the area by collecting what is needed for them to be able to meet the needs of others. We are collecting for ECHO during the months of July, August, September and October. ECHO stands for Emergency Care Help Organization. They serve low income and homeless residents in the Brandon area. There is a slide in the PowerPoint as well as a list on the basket in the Narthex beside the Children’s Ministry table. Please help us to bless this ministry.
