RELIEF FOR AFRICA

My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

 Beloved in Christ, I do not know what kind of situation this letter finds you and your family. However, as Christians we need to be in prayer for those around the world and in our own communities who are in need. Those of us who are able should also consider making a commitment to do any or all of the following:

  *Call your local food pantry and ask what they need and then respond.

  *Visit the UMCOR website and donate prayerfully whatever you can to the

    humanitarian crisis in the Horn of Africa via UMCOR Advance Sp.#982450

  *Place your donation for drought relief in the Horn of Africa in the collection plate next Sunday earmarked for UMCOR Advance Special #982450.

 As God has blessed us, let us reach out and bless others. Thank you for joining me in this effort.

 Prayerfully and in Christ’s love,

Bishop Sudarshana Devadhar
