UMCOREBENEZER - "A Stone of Help" The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) is the not-for-profit global humanitarian aid organization of the United Methodist Church. UMCOR is working in more than 80 countries worldwide, including the United States. Thier mission, grounded in the teachings of Jesus, is to alleviate human suffering—whether caused by war, conflict or natural disaster, with open hearts and minds to all people. UMCOR responds to natural or civil disasters that are interruptions of such magnitude that they overwhelm a community's ability to recover on its own. Ebenezer UMC, through UMCOR, has responded in helping Hurricane Katrina victims in 2005. In 2010, church members donated generously to those affected by the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Currently we are supporting the work in Urkaine. We take the meaning of our church name seriously. If we are called, we respond with help. |
