SAGER BROWN DEPOT MISSION TRIP

September 6th-11th This is the Something for Everyone adult mission trip! Sager Brown is the hub of relief supply operations of the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) in Baldwin, Louisiana. Volunteers assemble relief kits in a climate controlled facility to be sent to disaster sites. There is something to do for every person and every skill set. We’ll assemble kits and help with whatever needs to be done to run the facility. There are sewing and community construction projects as well. Volunteers may stay in a dormitory or bring an RV. Most meals are provided by the facility. The cost is $214 per person, and we have 15 spots reserved. If you’re interested in joining the team, pick up an application at the Connection Center in the Narthex or email Peggy Badlato.
