Responding to Hurricane Harvey

Hurricane Harvey Help

Many of you have asked how you can help.

First and foremost, please pray for all those impacted by the storm. 

As announced on Sunday, UMCOR – United Methodist Committee on Relief is the official agency of The United Methodist Church that responds to disasters. UMCOR works with other agencies to determine the location of the most needs. While I am aware there are various avenues through other organizations and groups who are all trying to provide support to the people in the affected areas, we will utilize our methodist connection. This Sunday, September 3, we will take up a special collection for UMCOR to be given to the Harvey Relief and Recovery effort.

If you choose to give monetarily online, please go to the 

UMCOR website here and you can credit our local church by selecting it. 100% of your donation will go to the relief effort. 

We will also assemble flood buckets. You can find the supply list here

. You may assemble your bucket(s) or bring your supplies to church either on Sunday or during the week. 
Please see the attached flyer/image on how you can help. Also, please read

Bishop Mike Lowry’s blog to the conference or go directly to the Central Texas Conference website by clicking here for updates. 

Thank you for your generous hearts in giving.

Grace and Peace be with you in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ!
