Special Offering Collection - This Sunday

4/14/2021

The April collection is for Clothing, INC, a nonprofit organization in Mt. Pleasant that provides free clothing to anyone in need. You can make your online donation to the Social Justice Fund or, if you prefer to write a check, please write it to UUFCM with Clothing, INC on the memo line.

Where to Donate Your Stimulus Check

2/17/2021

Recently, when each of our local agencies was asked if their need was currently in emergency status, all indicated that they were making it but that donations are still welcomed because of the increased need of their guests. If you are a person who really does not have a need for your stimulus check but has received it anyway, follow your heart’s lead in determining where you would like to donate your money. Here is A Guide to Helping and Getting Help During the Coronavirus Crisis. It lists ways to give, how to get help, and how to help in other ways in your community.

Food: Soup Kitchen
Food Pantry

Homeless shelter: ICRH

Health Products: Care Store

Clothing: Clothing, INC

Domestic Violence: R.I.S.E.

Help Provide Meals for the Homeless Shelter

At the last minute, we have been asked to provide meals for the homeless at the Free Methodist Church from Sunday, February 28, through Saturday, March 6. We need people to provide main dishes, side dishes, beverages, and desserts. If you are interested and willing to help – and for more information – please contact Joyce Henricks.

The ICRH homeless shelter is open and we are scheduled to provide food this coming week of November 22-28. We have participated as a “partner” church since the shelter opened. We provide a main dish, side dishes, salads, soups, desserts, and whatever else people want to provide for dinners. If you can prepare food but are not able to take it to the shelter, we can transport the food for you.

If you are willing and able to help, please contact Joyce Henricks (joyce.henricks@cmich.edu; 989-400-9743) as soon as possible so that she can coordinate the meals!

ICRH Volunteers Needed

1/29/2020

The Isabella County Restoration House continues to be in need of more volunteers throughout the shelter season. We are particularly in need of people for day shelter shifts (1-4 pm) and intake shifts (4-6:30 pm). To volunteer, submit an application on the website, and then sign-up to volunteer. Should you have questions, feel free to contact Norma Bailey (baile1nj@cmich.edu) or Joyce Henricks (henri1je@cmich.edu).
