💖 Serving Our Community: A Heartfelt Thank You 💖⁠
⁠
At St. John's UMC, we believe in the power of loving our neighbors, and today we want to recognize two special members of our church family: Larry and Julie. 🙌⁠
⁠
After Hurricane Helene impacted so many in North Carolina, this incredible couple took it upon themselves to coordinate a donation drive, filling not one, but two garages with much-needed supplies for those suffering from the devastation. 🏠⁠
⁠
Thanks to their hard work and the generosity of our church and local community, these donations were packed up and delivered directly to those in need. 🙏⁠
⁠
This is what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus—to serve, love, and support others in their time of need. Thank you, Larry and Julie, for your heart of service, and thank you to everyone who contributed. You truly make a difference! 🌟⁠
