You may also give online at www.bumc.net/BUMCAccess, or write a check to BUMC with “housing” in the memo line.

Human Development Initiative: Christmas in July Thank you to all the volunteers who served at Project Transformation! We are thrilled to continue our work with educational support as we approach our own project, Christmas in July. Our goal is to supply 1,000 students with necessary back- to-school items during the month of July. Stop by one of the trees today in the Narthex and pick up a tag with the coordinating shopping list. Supplies should be returned by August 2 when there will be a packing party with our 5th & 6th grade students in BUMC 56 and dedication in worship services.
