June	Education Day (first Sunday of the Month) The program will be published in the Southern Methodist paper. You are encouraged to present the program before Sunday School the first Sunday in June. Then ask the church to give the Sunday School offering to the WMS for this cause. You can encourage everyone to dig a little deeper since the funds will be used for the SMC Scholarship Fund.
July	Missionary Clothing Fund When we have a missionary family come home, we try to give them some money to shop for clothes. It has usually been at least 4 years since they were last able to buy some new things. We want our missionaries to be dressed like us as they come visit our churches - it is to glorify the Lord.
August	WMS Emphasis and Enlistment Month $1.00 per member. Funds are used for the general promotional work of the WMS Council.

February	Southern Methodist Day of Prayer (last Wednesday of the month) The program will be published in the Southern Methodist.

March	Mission Supply Room We keep a room at SMC stocked with supplies where our missionaries can "shop" when they come for home assignment and when they are preparing to return to the field. Everything is there to set up house - from sheets and towels to cookware to dishes to trash cans to paper towels. Rose Maree Bunton of the Bowman Church is the primary caretaker. You can purchase supplies and take them to the Missions Supply Room yourself or you can send a contribution and Rose Maree will buy the things that are needed. When there are specific needs, The Communicator will print a list.
April	College Project Month Each year we vote at our Annual Conference WMS meeting on a specific project relating to SMC. For the 2003-2004 conference year, we voted to raise funds to purchase a lawn mower. Previous projects have included the Library, accreditation costs, re-finishing the floors at Adden Hall.
May	Marian Gamble Scholarship Fund. Funds are used to aid in the education of students at SMC.
