October Missions – Join Us in Sharing and Serving

 

*Bridge to Hope Cancer Walk 2021

Shalom, everyone, 

It’s hard to believe October is already here! As we enjoy the beauty of this season – the colorful foliage and harvest – let’s also take time to give back and share with our neighbors in need.

This month, we have the opportunity to join two important mission projects: "UMCOR" and "Bridge to Hope."

1. UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief)
In the wake of Hurricane Helene, many families are struggling to recover. UMCOR-trained teams are on the ground providing aid through cleanup efforts and by delivering essential supplies like hygiene and cleaning kits.  
We will be raising a special offering on Sundays, Oct 6th and 13th. Please write a check to the church and mark “UMCOR” in the memo.

2. Bridge to Hope
Bridge to Hope supports local families in Aroostook County facing cancer, providing help with travel, accommodations, and even meals during treatments. The annual fundraising walk will be held on Saturday, Oct 19th at 10 am at Riverfront Park in Houlton.  

We encourage you to join the walk and/or donate throughout the month. Please write a check to the church with “Bridge to Hope” in the memo.

You don’t need to participate in everything. As we pray, let the Spirit guide your heart. Wherever you feel called, please join us with a cheerful and willing spirit!

Thank you for your generosity and care! 


In Christ,
Pastor Victor
