Hurricane and Flood Response in the Southeast
In September, St. Matthew’s community rallied to gather flood bucket supplies to aid flood recovery efforts in the southeastern U.S. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this cause. Unfortunately, additional weather events have increased the demand for these supplies. If you would like to continue supporting cleanup efforts, more information is available through UMCOR at umcmission.org/united-states-disaster-response. As always, your prayers and financial support are greatly appreciated during these challenging times.
