Annual pumpkin sale to take place all month

Saint Mark United Methodist Church’s annual Pumpkins for Missions fundraiser is set to begin Thursday, Oct. 3.  

Proceeds from the sale will help fund the church’s mission trip to Rio Bravo, Mexico, during spring break of 2014. There the mission team builds small houses for poor families and conducts a mission Bible school.  Approximately 30 children, youth and adults are expected to participate in the trip.

Pumpkins will be available weekdays from 4-7 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m.-7 p.m. and Sunday from noon-4p.m. through Oct. 30. Special arrangements can be made for groups such as kindergartens by calling the church at 822-5980. 

Saint Mark is located at 2901 Columbiana Road.
