Children's Thanksgiving Feast and Charge Conference
Worship the Sunday before Thanksgiving was a time to give thanks and look ahead. The children enjoyed their annual Thanksgiving Feast and the Church congregation met for annual Charge Conference to approve the budget for 2010, review the activities of the past year through a video of photos, and look to the future.
At left, children counted their blessings of thanksgiving on the tree. At right, The Rev. Gary Shaw, RISEM District Superintendent, leads the charge conference.

The Sunday School classes began their Thanksgiving Feast with prayer and by writing messages of thanksgiving |
|
|
The food included everything from pizza to cupcakes. |
The annual Charge Conference began with a video message from Bishop Weaver asking the congregation to "rethink Church" |
|
Since this is The Rev Gary Shaw's last charge conference as RISEM Superintendent, the church gave Gary a cake ..... |
and a Christmas ornament to remember North Kingstown UMC. |
