Friday Fives

1. Preaching Series - This week we are concluding our Lenten preaching series entitled, The Drama. Our focus each week has been upon some of the people who interacted with Jesus in those last days; government and religious officials, disciples, and general followers. We began this series on Ash Wednesday reflecting upon our role in this drama, for we are not without a part to play. Over the last several weeks we have looked at the roles of Pontius Pilate, Simon Peter, the onlookers, Nicodemus, Simon of Cyrene, Judas, and Doubting Thomas. This week our attention to the Emmaus Road, as we see how an interaction with Jesus sparked an incredible emotional response. Bring a friend and come join us, as we all learn together!





2. New Member Class - On Sunday, May 20th at 12:45 P.M., I will host a new member class in my office.

To register for his class, either call the church office at 629-5688, or email me at daryl.allen@flumc.org. This is a one session get together where we will discuss what it means to be a United Methodist, what it means to be a member of Druid Hills, and offer you a little background on history of this church. If this of interest to you I hope you will make plans to attend.




3. Ocala Health and Rehab - This Sunday is our week to go and minister to the residents of Ocala Health and Rehab. I want to extend an invitation to all of you to come and join us, Sunday at 2pm. Ocala Health and Rehab is located just down the street from the church on the corner of Lake Weir Road and SE 24th Road. We begin with a few hymns, I give a brief devotion, and we wrap it up with a few more hymns and a prayer. It is a wonderful time of fellowship and spreading the love of Christ I am sure you will enjoy it and be glad you participated! All are welcome and I hope to see you there!




4. May Newsletter - If you have an article for next month's newsletter, please get those into the office by this Sunday, April 15th. You can hand write them on a newsletter submission form and drop them by the office, or can email them to Carole at druidhillsum@aol.com.





5. Librarian Needed - Did you know that we here at Druid Hills have a fantastic library? There is an absolute vast assortment of books and the topics covered within its shelves. However, we need some help in keeping it organized. If you would like to help with its upkeep and with the adding of the donated books we have received, please let the church office know. This resource is a tremendous asset to our church and one we all can use!



Have a great weekend and see you Sunday!
