Hygiene Kits For Mission Central
The United Methodist Women and the KUMC Mission team are collecting donations and supplies for UMCOR hygiene kits. A team is going to Mission Central next month and would like to take supplies for Hygiene kits or a donation for hygiene kits. The next 3 Sunday's we will be collecting donations for the supplies for these kits. You can put your donation in the basket labelled for hygiene kits, place an offering in the model church designated for hygiene kits or make a donation through our PayPal link designated for hygiene kits We will buy the supplies here to send with the team or make some up here as well. With the forest fires, flooding and hurricanes, the need for these kits has never been more vital.

Upgraded KUMC Food Pantry & Mission Room
As part of an Eagle Project a Boy Scout from Troop 444 and his fellow scouts have improved our Food Pantry area in the Wesley Room. This Life Scout has worked diligently planning, fund-raising and executing his plan with his fellow scouts over the last several months. We can now help to serve many more people in need. Also included was shelving to contain our items that make up UMCOR kits and other Missions Projects. Take a look when you get a chance.
UMCOR & Missions Room
The new shelving and bins will hold the items necessary for our main UMCOR kits we make: Hygiene kits, Cleaning Buckets and School Kits.
This will be put to use immediately as we begin collecting supplies for Hygiene kits and other items for our Mission Central trip this fall.
