Disaster Relief for Hurricane Florence

  • Print
In the near future, we will be organizing teams to go and serve where needed. We are now in the process of connecting with churches in the affected areas to determine how we can serve their needs. If you can serve in the next few months on a disaster response team, then sign up at our worship locations starting this Sunday.
 
Currently, we will be collecting money to send to United Methodist Committee on Relief, aka UMCOR, that is already on the ground and operating out of churches acting as disaster relief centers. These  offerings will go 100% to recovery efforts - to materials and supplies. If you want to give, you can mark this special offering for disaster response.

College Ministry Program

Our church has been invited to assume leadership of the United Methodist Campus ministry also known as the Wesley Foundation at USM Gulf Park.

I believe we can make a difference in the lives of college students! Here is what is needed - people who feel a calling to reach out to the USM community. If you feel God speaking to you to be a volunteer in this ministry with students at USM, then please call the church office at 228-863-9619 to find out more.
 
We also need Community Groups or Sunday school classes that would like to sponsor a
