Candle Burning – The United Methodist Women will be doing a Candle Burning in 2021 for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Grandparents’ Day and All Saints’ Day. After reaching our annual Candle Burning budget amount for missions, proceeds will go to the Building Our Future campaign. To honor or remember your mother or a mother figure, please complete the Candle Burning form accessible through the link below and enclose $5.00 for each person honored or remembered and give to Kandis, Susan, or Brenda, or drop in the offering plate. Checks should be made out to Four Oaks United Methodist Women or FOUMW. You may also mail your form and check to the church at PO Box 177, Four Oaks NC 27524 or drop them in the mail slot at the front Fellowship Hall door. Candle Burning Forms for Mother’s Day are due by May 2.
