Beanless Bean Supper!


            For three seasons each year Peoples United Methodist Church is known for its monthly bean suppers.  This summer we invite you to participate in our first Beanless Bean Supper on August 18 to benefit the ministries of Peoples United Methodist Church.
    

        To ensure the success of this event you are invited to NOT bake beans, NOT bake a cake, pie, cookies, or brownies.  You do NOT have to find the recipe.  You do NOT have to shop for the ingredients.  You do NOT have to mix.  You do NOT have to cook.    You do NOT have to cut.   You do NOT have to wrap.  You do NOT have to wash dishes.  You do NOT have to clean up.  You do NOT have to deliver a casserole..  You do NOT have to work in the kitchen.   You do Not have to clean up afterward.   In fact, you can be really ambitious and NOT do any combination of the above.

            What you CAN do is join the fun!   Using the suggested guide below, you CAN write a check to Peoples UMC and bring it to church on August 18 or mail it in.  Then stay home and enjoy doing something yourself or with your family!
