Flood Buckets
The storms have stopped for now but the need is still great. The clean up efforts have begun and UMCOR needs our help. As the North Georgia Disaster Response Team coordinates across the Conference and across the connection, two priorities continue to rise to the top: Prayer and UMCOR funding.
Please continue to help UMCOR with supplies and funds. Crossroads has raised $1,800 in our effort to partner with UMCOR. However, more is needed.
This year at the Crossroads Men’s BBQ, we will be collecting supplies and financial donations to help support UMCOR and the Early Response Team. Please donate a Cleaning Bucket or any of the supplies shown to help assemble a Bucket. During the BBQ we will take the supplies donated and assemble Buckets. Please join us and help make buckets. We will also have Buckets set up to collect funds if you prefer to donate financially.
We will start collecting items for the buckets at the Wednesday Night Supper this week. A list of cleaning supplies needed is available in the Narthex. We will have buckets set up in the Narthex to collect your items.
Thank you for your help!
The Crossroads Mission Team
