Hello All!
March 2026 is HUMC month to deliver Meals on Wheels to our local neighbors!
This is a great Lenten sacrifice.
It only takes about 1-1/2 hours of your time, 11-12:30.
We meet at the red community building on Prospect Ave (by the playground) at 10:50 on the day you pick to deliver meals.
This is a wonderful way to positively impact someone’s day while also delivering a nutritious meal!
Please consider if you can spare this part of your day, we need volunteers!
If interested, please contact Elaine Parisi at 716-997-5893 or elaparisi@msn.com

CALLING FOR COFFEE HOUR VOLUNTEERS
Did you know HUMC has committees whose members volunteer to host coffee hour once or twice a month? Most of these volunteers are on several committees where they are repeatedly hosting to provide goodies each Sunday.
We are opening this ministry up to Individuals or families who would be willing to occasionally be hosts or hostesses.
It’s simply making coffee, lemonade, bringing homemade or store bought items, and cleaning up afterwards.
A sign-up sheet is located on the counter in the gathering space, outside the front office
Where you can pick a Sunday of your choosing.
Would you consider joining in this time of fellowship?
Please get in touch with Sue Gagne with any questions.

OPENING PRAYER:
O God, your will is that all your children should grow into fullness of life.
We lift up to you the ministry of scouting.
We offer your thanks for camping,
To teach us that the world is our great home;
For study and work, to build character;

For encouragement in genuine patriotism and vital faith.

Increase in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with you and all people. Amen
