United Methodist Church of Olney to Hold Harvest Festival

For decades, Harvest Festival has provided thousands of dollars for missions on the local, state, national, and international levels. Proceeds have been awarded to everything from our church food pantry, House of Mercy, Glen Lake Camp scholarships, children’s ministry, financial support for missionaries serving other countries, water wells in Kenya, Olney Senior Cub Center, The Refuge, and our church benevolent fund. This year, our benevolent fund has provided eye exams and glasses, if needed, for 15 adults in our community. We hope to continue that ministry, as well as all the others. Harvest Festival is our version of Texoma Gives.

FUMC Olney will be hosting our traditional Harvest Festival again this year on November 9th, with worship beginning at 10:30 a.m. and lunch beginning at 11:30 a.m. We are inviting you to join us in worship at 10:30 a.m. or drop by after your church worship service for lunch and enjoy some fabulous chili, beans, cornbread, Frito Pie, and desserts. There will also be lots of yummy items for sale at our Bake Shop, too! If you can’t make worship, please drop in for lunch.

Donations may be made online at https://www.shelbygiving.com/app/ giving/fumcolney, mailed to P.O. Box 305, or at the event. Please be sure to name Harvest Festival in your donation.
