Ron’s surgery went well and I am in the office this week. We left Payette at 7:15 a.m. Monday morning and returned at 7:15 p.m. with a new knee. Our daughter Tess said, “What a time to be alive!” The technology has come a long way and we are grateful for it. Ron is doing well and should heal quickly. Thanks for your prayers. He’s a better patient than I am a nurse so we’ll see how this goes. The remainder of the funds for the new entry ramp came in this week! So that project is finished. As always, thanks to everyone for your generosity. Danny will be teaching a new Sunday School class starting Sunday, September 10th at 9:45.

It will be a great class and if you have been thinking about attending Sunday School this will be a great opportunity. Just show up on the 10th!

Ron’s great nephew Brandon who was in an industrial accident a little over a year ago had surgery to repair his left hand this week.

Please keep Brandon in your prayers. Ken Phelps had a fight with outdated eyedrops and lost. Now he has a scratched cornea. Keep Ken in your prayers.

Come join our pastor for coffee and conversation. The blessing pitcher will be out for another week to collect money to pay for refinishing the entrance ramp. Save the date of Saturday, September 23rd for our second annual Neighborhood Carnival. We will need help! Hi Everyone! August 17, 2023
I absolutely predicted this hot spell. It happens every year because school has started! There is nothing like a sweaty kid dressed in his brand-new flannel shirt and jeans to start the school year! I’m sure everyone involved is thankful for air conditioning in the buildings. Remember to keep the students and staff in your prayers all year long. The entrance ramp is finished and it’s beautiful! We will be able to walk on it starting Saturday afternoon. It is so much safer for us! If you would still like to contribute to this project, the blessing pitcher will be out for two more Sundays. We are still a couple of hundred dollars short. We are still using the entrance just east of the main one for the next few days. The same key fits the lock. To double check that the church is disarmed, call or text Mary Beth, James or me and we can use our phones to check and disarm it. Just a couple of more days and we’ll be done with this project. Save the date of Saturday, September 23rd for our 2nd annual Neighborhood Carnival. It will be from 11-1 this year and we will need lots of help. The September/October issue of the Upper Room is available in the entryway. If you need help getting one, please let me know and we’ll figure it out. The church received a couple of rogue emails from Pastor Mary Beth that are impersonating her. If you get an email from her from anything except pastor.marybeth.boesch@gmail.com please don’t open it. The Ad Board will meet on Monday, August 21st at 7pm. The Trustees will not meet this month. Everyone is invited to attend this meeting. Hugh and Doris Homan are settling in to their new home at Edgewood in Fruitland. Their address is 1255 N. Allen Ave. Apt. 156 Fruitland, ID 83619. I heard that they would love visitors! We have a praise this week! Roxanne Collingwood/Irwin has a new great granddaughter, Sybil Fay Saracho. Congrats to everyone! We have some prayer requests this week. Please say an extra prayer for Gary and Lis Williamson at this time. Please pray for the folks in Maui. They have been devastated by wildfires. Sheri Hood’s brother’s sister-in-law Lori was trapped in the fire and suffered burns over 60% of her body. She has been airlifted to Oahu in critical condition. She will need our prayers for a long time. Ron will have knee replacement surgery this coming Monday, the 21st. Pray for quick healing for him. I’m not sure what my office schedule will be like next week depending on how he is doing. Please call before you come to the church during the week. Most likely Pastor Mary Beth will be around if I’m not but please call the church number. 208-642-2475 Please keep these folks on your prayer list: Jean Pollock, Macy Steckley, Hugh Homan, the Jeffries, Shannon Osborn, Jim Moy, Steve Simonson, Anne DeBord, Mike’s brothers Jerry and Jay, Ron’s brothers Jerry and Jim, Mary Boesch, Olivia Bybee, Terry Hershey, Teresa’s stepdad and grandson and Jan Bolin. We had a very nice church service last week with our visitors from Vale UMC. We were reminded of this by our pastor: We are all equally beloved! Isn’t that the best news ever? Have a great rest of your week and we hope to see you on Sunday. Blessings, Cris Payette United Methodist Church

Welcome to our friends from Vale UMC. Everyone please join us for a potluck after the service today! Monday Morning Coffee is from 9-12 at Bordertown Coffee in Gayway Junction. Come join our pastor for coffee and conversation. The blessing pitcher will be out for a few weeks to collect money to pay for refinishing the entrance ramp. The entrance ramp will be under construction all week but will be ready for us next Sunday. If you come during the week, please use the next door down. It will be unlocked. If you need to disarm the building please contact Cris, James or Pastor MB. We can disarm with our phones. Hi Everyone! August 10, 2023
The School Supply Fair was a roaring success and I mean roaring in every way! Things were hectic here for the first hour with people lined up on the sidewalk waiting for the event to start. We prepared at least 147 students with the supplies they will need to start a successful school year. In addition, we served lunch to the families of those students, gave them books to read, had clothing available and for the first time had sporting equipment available because of Landon Ruth’s senior project. I’m so proud of all the support it took to make this event happen. We asked for financial support and volunteers and both happened. A big thank you goes to everyone for loving our community! The entrance ramp construction starts on Monday, August 14th. The area will be blocked off with construction tape. We will be using the next door down next week until Sunday. The project will be finished by then. If you need the building disarmed, please contact James, Pastor Mary Beth or me because we can disarm the church with our phones. That entrance is way too far from the key pad to disarm it in time. The United Methodist Men will meet on Saturday, August 12th at 9:00 a.m. for their monthly breakfast meeting at Erika’s Kitchen in Payette. All men are invited and encourage to attend. Payette had a tragedy this week. On Tuesday, Jaydyn Ramos was in a terrible train vs. car accident on Washoe Road and lost her life. She should be starting her senior year of high school in a few days. Please keep her family and friends in your prayers during this very difficult time. Pray also for the students and teachers beginning a brand-new school year in the next few days. I remember Pastor Bill Hays saying every time he passed by a school, he said a prayer for all those inside. I love that idea! Pray for the students and staff on the school bus that overturned on Hwy. 55 last week. Danny has applied for a job at the prison and has an interview on August 16th at 8:00 a.m. Please say a special prayer for Danny. He really wants this job! Ron had an appointment with his orthopedic surgeon on Tuesday about his knee pain. He will have total knee replacement on Monday, August 21st. This was pretty shocking news since we both thought there would be an easier solution to fix his knee. Keep Ron in your prayers. We have some prayer requests that were on the prayer chain: Piper and her husband both have Covid.( Piper is a friend of ours who we first met at Fit and Fall Proof.) Colleen, a neighbor of Kathryn Gordon’s is having serious vision problems, John McEwen a friend of Jean Pollock is recovering from open heart surgery, Karen Sagehorn’s friend and neighbor Mari is being evaluated for spinal stenosis and Rev. Curtis from Benton UMC is recovering from eye surgery. (A last-minute update on Mari; she will have physical therapy and pain management for her spine problems. She thanks us for our prayers.) Please keep praying for Jean Pollock and Macy Steckley for complete healing. Macy was in church on Sunday and Bible Study on Tuesday. It was so great to see her where she belongs! Keep the folks on Maui in your prayers. Wildfires have destroyed so much! Continue to pray for Terry Hershey, Hugh Homan, Olivia Bybee, Teresa’s stepdad Larry, Steve Simonson, Anne DeBord, Jerry and Jay Hall, Jerry and Jim Warzyn, the Williamsons, Shannon Osborn, Mary Boesch and Teresa’s grandson. The praise songs this week will be Your Love Never Fails and Beautiful Things. Click on the blue links to listen in and sing along. We have sung these both before so they will sound familiar! The Ice Cream Truck will run on Thursday for the last time before school starts. It has been a big success this summer and we sure enjoy doing it. We did get stopped by the police last week but that went really well. We even offered the officer ice cream! I hope you are fixing something delicious for the potluck on Sunday. We hope to see you here! Blessings, Cris Payette United Methodist Church

Wow! Things were hoppin’ at the church on Tuesday. We had Lifeline Screening, the Fit and Fall Proof exercise group, the contractor for the new front ramp, Bible Study, AA, and the Community Closet folks here all at the same time. I absolutely loved it! PUMC is essential in our area! We are so close to being ready for our School Supply Fair on Saturday. A lot of work has been happening behind the scenes to host such a big event. Thank you to Teresa Beer and her team for making it all work. James and Pastor Mary Beth have been involved in every step and that is much appreciated. For those of you helping, please arrive by 9:00 a.m. We will need to meet with everyone first then you can set up the classrooms. There will be donuts! For those bringing cookies, please try to get them here by nine or shortly after so we can get them put on trays. We have had lots of interest in the event so we hope it will be the best one ever. None of this could happen with the generous donations provided by you. Vale UMC will be joining our service on Sunday, August 13th. We will have a potluck after church. Please put this on your calendar and let’s have a big turnout to welcome our Oregon neighbors. Reed’s Concrete and Construction will be tearing out our entrance ramp the week of August 14th. The area will be roped off with construction tape so please just use the next door down that week. The project will be completed by that Sunday morning. We have had a good response for money to fund this project but we are still a little short. The Blessing Pitcher will be out for a couple of more weeks for those of you who didn’t get a chance to pitch in. Thank you everyone! Kathryn Tompkins and her friend Lizzy are at Young Life Camp this week. Keep them in prayer as they learn about and experience God’s love and for safe travels home. Please keep Jeanie Sandquist in your prayers. She has been suffering some unexplained symptoms for the past week or so. According to John, she is starting to feel better but is still weak. Macy Steckley is home from the hospital and is gaining strength every day. Ron and I popped in to visit with her this week and she looks great. We’ll all be happy to have her back in church! Kathryn Gordon sent word that the Baby Scarlet Grace is over 8lbs now and is home. What an answer to prayer! I talked to Anne DeBord this week. She is back in McCall enjoying the cool nights and watching folks on the golf course. She has some helpers come to her home most days and help with showers, laundry, cleaning and meals. If you go to McCall, give her a call. I’m sure she’d be glad to see you!

Hi Everyone! July 27, 2023
I’m baaaack! Ron and I had a fantastic time in Illinois and Wisconsin visiting Ron’s family. The weather was unbelievably great with temps in the 70’s, low humidity and a slight breeze. We did have one day of rain but I didn’t mind. It was great spending time with family and friends. One little side note: on the rainy day we went to a casino and I won $300! I found out that winning is a lot more fun than losing! As a bonus we were able to meet up with members of my family in Salt Lake City so that was great too. It is good to be home. Here's some great news; Macy Steckley is home! She is doing well and is glad to be home. She appreciates the prayers. Jean Pollock is home from the hospital too! She is doing much better and has therapy scheduled to treat her vertigo. Preparation for our School Supply Fair is in high gear. We have been shopping, counting and organizing and will be ready on Saturday, August 5th. We do need more help for that day. After looking at the sign-up sheet I see we are missing 5th grade classroom managers and escorts. Please sign up on Sunday or call the office and I’ll plug you into a spot! Come and help us love our community. If you are volunteering and would like to wear a shirt that says, “Work hard & be kind, that is all” there are a few on the pew in the entry way. If none of those work for you, get a plain shirt to the shirt to Teresa by Monday and she’ll fix it up. Jean Stephan’s 90th birthday party will be this Saturday, July 29th at the Payette Senior Center from 2-4. Her kids ask that you don’t bring gifts but cards are appreciated. A Fit and Fall Proof Class is returning to PUMC starting Tuesday, August 1st. This class is a safe way to gain strength and agility to prevent falls. Everyone is welcome to attend these classes which will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 9:30-10:30 a.m. There is one more big change to Coffee With the Pastor. Hopefully this will be the last change. Pastor Mary Beth is moving coffee back to Mondays from 9-12 and the location will be Border Town Coffee in Gayway Junction. Starting Monday, July 31st, join our pastor for coffee and she’ll even pay! The Sunday morning Sunday School Class is taking the month of August off. The last class will be on Sunday, July 30th and will resume on Sunday, September 10th. If you are interested in joining this adult class, September will be an excellent time to start attending. We will have a taco feed after church this Sunday, July 30th. The United Methodist Men are putting it all together which we appreciate! There will be a free will offering for this meal and some of what is given will go towards refinishing the entrance ramp. The blessing pitcher for this same project will be out for a few more weeks. On the morning of our School Supply Fair, Saturday, August 5th, the Clothing Closet will be open. That will be an excellent opportunity for folks to become familiar with this service and pick up some school clothes. We have prayer requests this week. We have been praying for Steve Simonson who had brain surgery a couple of weeks ago. We now find out that cancer was detected. He will have both chemo and radiation. Keep Steve and his family in your prayers. Teresa Beer is asking for prayers for her grandson due in November. A cyst was detected on his lung during an ultrasound. Please keep his parents, Austin and Jalani in your prayers too. Keep Macy, Hugh and Jean Pollock in your prayers. We need them back to their best! Keep the following folks in your prayers: Anne DeBord, Jan Bolin, Teresa’s stepdad Larry, Olivia Bybee, Terry Hershey, Mary Boesch, Jim and Jerry Warzyn, Jay and Jerry Hall, Shannon Osborn, the Jeffries, the Williamsons, and Frank Gordon. The worship song this week is Your Love Never Fails. Please click on the blue link and become familiar with it before Sunday. We hope to see you Sunday morning! Stay for tacos!
