New Ministry Coming to MUMC

Transportation Assistance.
We all need some help from time to time (and sometimes it is difficult to ask), so we would like to make that a little easier. If you are able to provide transportation for individuals to and from medical appointments, please sign up on the attendance pad. This will allow us to compile a list of those individuals who are willing and able to provide this type of vital support. By showing this type of care and concern for your church family you will be blessing someone else, and you will surely be blessed in return.
You may also call the office to let them know you are willing to help or Michelle Parker-Clark for more information.

Savvy Caregiver Classes

July 16th, 23rd, & 30th
9am – 11am
Stop to consider the situation you find yourself in. This probably is different from any other situation you have experienced. Looking at that difference is a key first step in appreciating the work you have undertaken as a caregiver. The Savvy Caregiver program is meant to help you develop, strengthen, and master the skills that will help you in this ongoing balancing act that defines your caregiving work. This class is open to anyone currently in a caregiving role with a family member or friend.
