Postcards from the Road

Over the course of the summer we hope that you will send postcards to the congregation (addressed to PPUMC/22 Orlin Av SE, Minneapolis, 55414). You can send them from across town, across the country, or across the planet. You can ask a friend to send one from East Timbuktu! They need not say anything more than, “Hello from here!”…
