FRESH FOOD DISTRIBUTION
On the first Wednesday of the month, we have our Fresh Food Distribution.As a partner agency with the South Michigan Food Bank, MUMC distributes
fresh food boxes to between 100 and 125 families each month.
Quite often there are additional items as well.
If you or someone you know can benefit from this, the cars start lining
before 3:30PM, on the first Wednesday of the month, in our South parking lot.
If you’d like to volunteer to help distribute this food, contact John Seppanen.

MIDWEST MISSION
DISTRIBUTION CENTER TRIP
Dates: Once each fall Location: Chatham, Illinois
You are invited to join a team of people that head to Chatham, Illinois, for a mission trip
at MMDC. During the mission experience to Midwest, our team will be sorting
and packing flood buckets, hygiene, health, and school kits. Other possible jobs
include landscaping and building projects. All skill levels are welcome to come.
We will be staying in a comfortable dorm and will be sharing cooking responsibilities.
The cost of the missions trip is very reasonable. This is guaranteed to be a heartwarming experience, as you work side-by-side with other churches to prepare and send items to needy areas in the U.S. and around the world.
For more information, contact the church office at 269-781-5107.

Safe Place
Marshall United Methodist Church and There’s Enough have partnered with Safe Place to support individuals and families affected by domestic violence. Through our Noisy Offerings and in-kind donations, we provide financial assistance and essential items such as clothing, furniture, housewares, toiletries, and other necessities.
When a family is forced to leave an unsafe situation, they may have little more than the clothes they are wearing. Through this partnership, MUMC is able to respond when Safe Place social workers identify a need, offering practical support and a caring reminder that no one has to face a difficult new beginning alone. Find more information about Safe Place here.
