Join us in prayer for those impacted by historic levels of flash flooding and severe storms across multiple states in the Midwest United States this week, including Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, and Ohio. Widespread evacuations, damage to homes and businesses, and multiple deaths have been reported, with several areas still under flood watch today.

UMCOR is in close communication with the affected annual conferences, and we stand ready to support their response efforts as they care for their communities in need.

On July 14, Pastor Alyssa stopped by to visit her friend and colleague Pastor Gail Hoyt.

A visit to the beautiful Blackfeet United Methodist Parish in north-central Montana became a meaningful act of connection and support. Pastor Alyssa delivered about 15 Christian-based DVDs and $1,800 in donations from Washington UMC to Pastor Gail Hoyt and BUMP’s sober living groups. The ministry brings together Bible study, shared meals, life-skills conversations, and Blackfeet-inspired arts and crafts. Pastor Gail, the first Blackfeet pastor appointed to BUMP, serves communities across the reservation through churches, food pantries, and outreach ministries.
