 “I come to you as a prodigal son. Please forgive me.” — Denford Muliliwana,
              a repentant thief addressing a Zimbabwe church.


Zimbabwe project welcomes ex-prisoners

   CHITUNGWIZA, Zimbabwe (UMNS) — He passed the wide-open oak door and stepped
   into Seke United Methodist Church. Sadness and pity stared back at him. He
   longed for what could never be. Denford Muliliwana had to gather courage for
   true repentance before people he had wronged.

Dinner and a show delight homeless

   WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. (UMNS) — Homeless dine with dignity as United
   Methodists serve and socialize, reports the Los Angeles Daily News. "They
   need to know people care and feel like they have a family,” said the Rev.
   April Belt, pastor of Woodland Hills United Methodist Church.

ABC show looks at anti-hunger efforts

   NEW YORK (UMNS) — An interfaith documentary focusing on new ways to feed the
   hungry, [19]“A Peace of Bread: Faith, Food, and the Future,” will be shown
   on ABC affiliates beginning Nov. 20. United Methodist-related highlights
   include weekly food-distribution efforts by New York’s West Side Campaign
   Against Hunger, based at the Church of St. Paul and St. Andrew, United
   Methodist, and the gleaning of U.S. fields through the work of the Society
   of St. Andrew. The program was produced by Diva Communications with a grant
   from Odyssey Networks and the support of interfaith partners, including the
   National Council of Churches.

Online retreat offered for Advent

   NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UMNS) — The Rev. Beth Richardson, a United Methodist
   deacon, and others will offer an Advent/Christmas e-course based on
   Richardson’s book, “Child of the Light.” [21]The course, offered from Nov.
   27 to Jan. 6, is designed to help Christians find a quiet center, a time-out
   from busyness, to be with God. Daily emails include readings, reflections
   and prayers inspired by Advent hymns and, during the 12 days of Christmas,
   12 Christmas carols. The course costs $49.95.

Correction: Missionary to Tunisia

   This short obituary of the missionary Isaac Agré, which appeared in the Nov.
   7 Daily Digest, incorrectly put “the Rev.” before the name of Thomas Kemper,
   the top executive at the United Methodist Board of Global Ministries. Kemper
   is a layperson.
