This year we will be sharing in a delicious lunch on the 2nd Sunday of the month. Our first lunch was September 10, 2023. We had Barb's famous macaroni and cheese plus Marilyn baked cake for our dessert. Mark your calendars to join us on the 2nd Sunday! In October, we will be having a chili/chowder/soup cook off. Bring your best recipe to compete or bring yourself to try samples! Saturday, September 9, 2023 was a great day for Immanuel United Methodist Church and the Camillus Police Department to host an onsite bed build with Sleep In Heavenly Peace ! Forty beds built that day put them at 4000 beds since 2018! Our 14th Annual Mini Golf Tournament was held on Saturday, August 5, 2023. We had a great turnout of golfers and hole sponsors. Many thanks to all who helped and all who participated! $2,175.35 was raised to support Disaster Recovery Mission work. Here are the winning teams:

Not even the heat will keep the people of God from being the hands and feet of Jesus!
On Thursday, July 7, a group from Immanuel paired with the Camillus Police Department, Home Depot, and Operation Northern Comfort to build a ramp for a local couple in need. The ramp will be installed on Saturday. This story made the news on Channel 9. Pastor Jack's response to seeing the article was, "It was a great effort accomplished by good folks dedicated to serving in Jesus' name! Doesn't get any better than that!" Many thanks to all who participated.

The cost per plant is $10.
