Historic tornadoes have torn through Cass, St. Joseph, and Branch counties, leaving devastation in their wake. Lives have been lost. Families have been displaced. Communities are hurting.

As Michigan United Methodists, we are people who show up — but right now, only emergency first responders can help. The most loving thing we can do is pray for those affected and donate to our designated disaster response organization, After The Storm. We will keep you apprised of our response and the community's needs.
