PRAYER MINISTRY
 

The Windsor Hills United Methodist Prayer Ministry is a group of people in the congregation who have committed to pray for the needs of the church and its members, as well as for others who request prayer. There are two prayer lists; one is shared, the other is confidential and is distributed to only a very small dedicated group that has pledged not to reveal these requests. There are two prayer groups – one meets monthly, the other weekly. During the course of one year, the prayer team members pray for every person in the congregation – a few each week. Members are notified in advance of the week we pledge to pray for them.

We believe in the power of prayer! If you have a prayer request at any time, for yourself or others, please call Mark and Carolyn at 772-0984.

NEWS FROM THE WEEKDAY SCHOOL 

We now have 20 busy little people in our Weekday School.  They had pictures made in September.  In October, each class had fun with the Halloween parade, the playground pumpkin hunt, and the 3’s and 4’s enjoyed their field-trip to Brandon Oaks.  Weekly music, gym, Spanish classes, and Chapel continue throughout the year.

MDO children are continuing to adjust to going to school for the first time.  They are having lots of fun as they develop gross and fine motor skills during play time.

The busy 2’s have been sponge painting, easel painting, marble painting, and Q-tip painting.  Fall provides great themes.

The 3’s are learning about shapes, colors, numbers, and letters.  They have enjoyed a variety of art projects as they learn eye-hand coordination, color blending concepts and about seasons and holidays.  They are continuing to work on following directions and social skills as they gather for circle time each morning. 

Mrs. Koon has creatively led the fours in activities pertaining to self and family.  The letters A-J have been introduced as well as fall themes.  They have ventured out for field trips including trips to Jamison’s Orchard, the Pumpkin Patch and Brandon Oaks.
