Calvin’s Comments
IT’S CAMP MEETING TIME, AGAIN
The end of June and throughout the month of July has been hot and steamy! Of course, this is not too unusual for summer in the south! We know from experience that August is generally hot and steamy as well!
It has been a tradition for a number of years to celebrate Summer Camp Meeting Sundays throughout the month of August at Winder First. We do this in August, because, in the past, a number of Camp Meetings were held in August. However, Camp Meetings have had to adjust over the last several years due to the school systems starting school so much earlier! Therefore, many Camp Meetings have just finished their 2017 camp, having backed their meeting time up to the last couple of weeks in July.
Many of us grew up when it was the norm to wear a coat and tie to church; however, we have become more casual in our dress. For those, like me, who grew up wearing a coat and tie to church I’d like to encourage you to join me in leaving them at home during August. Ladies are also encouraged to dress casual and comfortable. Of course, we expect the casual dress to be in good taste.
In addition to dressing casual, our services will have less liturgy and more singing. Our Music Director, Bruce Nunley, will have us singing the hymns and spiritual songs that many of us grew up singing! And we know our choir and other musical groups will inspire us with their music, as they do each week!
As we did last year, on the last Sunday in August…August 27...you are encouraged to wear the colors and/or logo representing your favorite team (little league, school, college/university or professional), as long as it’s Red and Black!
Do you have neighbors, friends, co-workers and family that are unchurched? Sure you do!! This is a wonderful time to invite them to come worship with you! Come each week expecting God to do great things!
I look forwarded to greeting you each week at the “Camp Meeting” place!

SonShine in the Park VBS Blessings! During the week of June 26 - 30, our middle school mission team had the joy of sharing God’s love with 50 plus youth and children at the Winder Village Mobile Home Park located behind Ingles. Each day we shared Bible stories, games, crafts, music, snacks and lunch. For most of those that we met this was their first and only VBS experience for 2017. The SonShine in the Park mission was powered by the following wonderful members of the Winder FUMC family: (youth) Amber Conn, Robert Hill, Sarah Ann Hill, Jill Murphy, Jordan Murphy, Dayton Power, Kaden Knight, Kaleb Knight, Tabitha Rippy, Caitlin O’Shield and Drew Smith (adults) Toni Boldin, Pastor Calvin, Gwen Hill, Nicky Jones, Todd McCain, Tom Morton, Dwight, Tammy & Cali Oakes, Elleen Petree, Wayne & Pam Sharpton, Anthony Smith and Joann Smith. Special thanks to those who gave financial support and to the city of Winder for providing the tents.
