5th Annual Swap Meet
Saturday May 2 from 8 a.m. until Noon
Church’s Front Parking Lot
Our 5th Annual Swap Meet, sponsored by the Special Events Team (SET) will be held in the
church’s front parking lot Saturday morning, May 2 nd from 8 until noon. The Swap Meet started
5 years ago when the Sunday School Class studied Adam Hamilton’s “Enough: Discovering Joy
Through Simplicity and Generosity”. The intention is to have fun while simplifying your life by
ridding your home of clutter and things you have been holding onto that you think others will
appreciate.
Our history at SUMC is that some folks sell gently used items, knickknacks, kitchen items,
collections, crafts, etc. What you don’t sell, you take home or drop it off at one of the local thrift
stores. SUMC participants are asked to give a minimum of 10% of the money collected from their
sales. More is always welcome. Proceeds benefit the General Fund and Verde Valley Sanctuary.
How do you get involved? There are 30 spaces available. You can choose from 6 foot or 8 foot
tables or bring your own. Sign-ups will begin on Easter, April 5th. SUMC members will be given
first choice. After April 19th, we will open up to outside vendors which will be allowed with a $25
deposit. As usual, SET will provide the advertising. A tip sheet will be available on the poster. If
you have questions, please contact Cheryl Henriksen or Suzie Dunn.
Adult Sunday School Class
SUMC would like to resume the Sunday Morning
Adult Sunday School Class.
The class could have two sessions:
8:00 a.m. (before church service)
10:45 a.m. (after church service — so that choir may participate)
The format is flexible. Topics and study material could be decided
by the group. The sessions are also flexible: short term 6-8 weeks with leaders taking turns.
