As millions are coping with the aftermath of Sandy this week, the United Methodist Church is with them. As the clean-up efforts continue, we are there to help by giving a helping presence as well as cleaning buckets, hygiene kits, and health kits. This tangible response is our physical way of showing our love of God and our neighbor.
Ways to respond to this disaster:
- Pray for those impacted by the storm and involved in disaster response.
- Give to UMCOR. Because UMCOR has many centers in the Northeastern U.S., it is best to give directly to UMCOR.
- To give, you may make a check payable to the NIC with the Advance #3021787 in the memo line and mail it to M. Bunt, ste 1820, 77 W. Washington St., Chicago, IL 60602.
