—————————————————————————————- The July Summer Nights Book Club selection is Secret Daughter by Shilpi Somaya Gowda. Join us in the Chapel on Thursday, July 26, at 7:00 pm to discuss this fictional account of international adoption and the unforeseen ways in which our choices affect not just our own lives but the lives of others. Everyone is welcome and no signups are required.

—————————————————————————————- Sign up now for our annual night out with the Durham Bulls on Saturday, August 11! Support our choir as they sing the national anthem.

—————————————————————————————- Have you seen all the photos that have been added to our online directory?

Learn more and make sure your information is up to date at wpumc.com/churchlife.

—————————————————————————————- Did you ever think that driving a shuttle could be an act of hospitality? We always need more greeters and ushers but shuttle drivers who carry folks between our off-site parking at Carolina Pottery and our parking lot are a part of our hospitality team also. If you're interested in helping in any of these ways let us know at communications@wpumc.com.
