Haiti Help

Many of us want to do something to help in Haiti, and there are many things we can do to help.  If you want to help, at this point monetary donations to a reputable and established charity are BEST!!!  For more information as to WHY, see this article.

Our MYF youth spent last Sunday afternoon assembling relief kits and medical supplies to be sent through UMCOR to Haiti.  Thank you for the generous donations from the congregation.  We will have 100 Health Kits ready to go soon. 



Thank you for your support!
