The "Hands On" team of UCUMC's Committee on Outreach and Local Mission continues to move forward with its mission of reaching out to serve the various needs in our community. During the month of October, the "Hands On" team joined the Cleveland Foodbank in organizing food donations for distribution throughout Cleveland, as well as MedWish International, where our volunteers assisted in the organization and preparation of donated medical supplies for international distribution to countries in need.
UCUMC has reserved multiple slots for participation in the following HandsOn projects:
• Tuesday, November 8, 5:45-7:45pm
Bingo Night with Seniors at St. Augustine
• Thursday, November 17, 6:15-8pm
Project Play at the West Side Community House
We will assist in activities for children while parents attend various workshops and meetings.
• Saturday, November 19, 10am-12:30pm
MedWish International, organization of donated medical supplies for distribution
Working with the UCUMC "Hands On" Team offers an excellent opportunity for meeting members of our wonderful, diverse congregation, while providing much needed services throughout the Cleveland area. Those who have attended a HandsOn orientation session may sign up for any or all of the three volunteer opportunities above by visiting HandsOnNEO.org. If you are not already a member of UCUMC's HandsOn Team, we would love to have you! Please contact Doug Blank (dblank3ATgmail.com), Pat Roberts or Marilyn Sutton for more information.
