Members of our church participate in community affairs providing food and labor for
the local Fireman's Fun Day, the annual Masons Pancake Day, and the Oketo
Historical Society's annual baked potato day.
Members of our church install and remove Christmas decorations on city streets and
at the church. We, the church, had a Christmas program for the community with
treats for all.
In the summer of 2004 we had our second "Ice Cream Social and Talent Show" at
City Hall. The Talent Show has a variety with singing, music, readings, dancing and
comedy acts. We are planning on having one in 2005, hope you can come join us.
We support the Marysville Food Pantry, Roundup for Hunger, Ogden Friendship
House, UMCOR, One Great Hour of Sharing, and the Disaster Relief Fund.

Our pledge to the Flint Hills District has been paid in full for over 34 years. In 2004
we gave two special recognition pins with a "Gift to Missions" in their names. Other
contributions included Gift in Memory, World Thank Offering, Call to Prayer and Self
Denial, Ogden Friendship House, Youthville and Roundup For Hunger. We gave a
monetary gift to Prison Ministries and a big box of yarn for their knitting program.
The Women's Division has a reading program in which our ladies may participate.
Response Magazine is included in this reading program. Six of our members
completed the Reading Program, and one member is a 5 Star member, as of 2004.
As a community service we serve funeral lunches to the bereaved.
We are thankful we can help others and ourselves grow spiritually through lessons,
fellowship and our reading.
