New College Ministry Starting


We are beginning a Christian discussion group for college students at the Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) this Fall.

Pastor Gwyneth will be leading the discussion group during the Fall, with the hopes that future groups will be student-led. Although the book choice has not yet been finalized, one in the top running is Velvet Elvis by Rob Bell (click on the picture to view a description).



Betty Splettstoesser and Sue Angell Volunteering at the SMCC Table

Volunteers from Peoples UMC passed out brochures and spoke with students during orientation week, and we have enough students signed up to start a study. We will also be handing out brochures as students move into dorms on August 26th 12-4pm, and during the school BBQ on August 31 11am-2pm.

Please contact Earle Harvey if you feel led to help out. In addition, please be in prayer for this outreach ministry to young adults in our area.
