Loma Essex Ministry

The Morning Circle of the UMW began a "Loma Essex Ministry" to support our college students for which Loma had a great concern.   It was Loma's wish to keep in touch with these students from our church.  Please inform us of any change in your student's mailing address or if you have a freshman student to add to the list by calling the church office at 870-946-2328 or emailing the church at  fumcdewitt@centurytel.net.  
 
We ask for your prayers that this ministry will be the blessing we intend and we thank you for your support.
